My object was to state and illustrate in as simple and as interesting a manner as possible, and with special reference to poetry, what I believe to be the true nature and end of artistic creation. But I feel too deeply the impossibility of stating any truth directly and completely, to wish that what I affirm should be considered as offering more than partial and temporary aspects. Truth seems to lie between conflicting thoughts (as a particle in equilibrium amidst opposing forces), and to be itself incapable of statement, though not of artistic representation ;and this fact may often suffice to explain apparent inconsistencies, and even contradictions in the following pages. For no thought is contented. The better sort, As thoughts of things divine, are intermix dW ith scruples, and do set the word itself A gainst the word. Richard ., A ct v. sc. 5.
