Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from The Bow in the Cloud: And the First Bereavement

It is the worst form of atheism. When our most fondly-cherished gourds are smitten - when our fairest flowers lie withered in our bosom - this is the silencer of all reflections, "The Lord prepared the worm." When the Temple of the Soul is smitten with lightning - its pillars rent - "The Lord is in His holy Temple." Accident, Chance, Fate, Destiny, have no place in the Christians creed. His is no unpiloted vessel, left to the mercy of the storm, - no weed left to the sport of the fitful waves. "The voice of the Lord is upon the waters." "Fear not: It is I, be not afraid." There is but one explanation of all that befals us: "I will be dumb, I will open not my mouth, because Thou didst it."

Death to the human spectator, seems the most capricious and wayward of events. But not so. The keys of Hades are in the hands of this same reigning God.
