'Carlyle said of Robert Burns that there was no truer gentlemen in Europe than the ploughman-poet. It was because he loved everything - the mouse and the daisy, and all things great and small, that God had made. So with this simple passport he could mingle with any society,

and enter courts and palaces from his little cottage on the banks of the Ayr'.

'By reflecting as a mirror the glory of the Lord we are changed. But this is not very clear. What is the "glory" of the Lord, and how can mortal men reflect it, and how can that act as an " impressed force " in molding him to a nobler form ?

' The mind, the memory, the soul is a simply a vast chamber paneled with looking-glass. And upon this miraculous arrangement and endowment depends the capacity of mortal souls to "reflect the character of the Lord."

excerts from the book ' The Greatest Thing in the World' p 15 - 16, and 36 - 38
