And you beat back the weakness of my sight, blazing upon me with your rays, and I trembled in love and in dread.

  • The American who has been confined, in his own country, to the sight of buildings designed after foreign models, is surprised on entering York Minster or St. Peter's at Rome, by the feeling that these structures are imitations also,--faint copies of an invisible archetype.
