I29 Eternal weal in the act ; as who should dare Pluck out the angry thunder from its cloud, That, all its gathered flame discharged on him, No storm might threaten summer's azure sleep. In these prelusive notes we have Mr. Browning's overture to the drama of Paracelsus : Hero and Martyr of Sciejtce. We shall find all these recur again and again in the har- mony to follow. Mr. Ruskin somewhere divides mankind into three orders of beings : " The lowest, sordid and selfish, which neither sees nor... feels ; the second, noble and sympathetic, but which sees and feels without concluding or acting ; the third and highest, which loses sight in resolution, and feeling in work ". To this latter class did Paracelsus be- long. "I go to prove my soul!" "I shall arrive!" he cries. When a man of this sort comes to feel that way, go forward he must. As Carlyle says : " Some arrive ; a glorious few ; many must be lost, go down upon the floating wreck which they took for land. Nay — Courage ! These also, so far as there was any heroism in them, have bequeathed their life as a contribution to us, have valiantly laid their bodies in the chasm for us ; of these also there is no ray of heroism lost, and on the whole, what else of them could or should be ' saved ' at any time ?
