There are those to whom knowledge, culture, training, of whatever sort, is sim- ply an introduction to the realm of wisdom and the domain of truth. And there are others, and it is to be feared that they are the great majority of educated people, in whom the pursuit of a particular study or group of studies has simply issued in such a contrac- tion of the intellectual vision that they have come, in a little while, to limit the sphere of worthy knowledge to their own narrowed horizon. Worse than ...this, there are those to whom knowledge itself has come in time to mean that which may be known only in one way, 6 BACCALAUREATE SERMON.
and verified only by tme set of faculties, and whose dogmatism is in inverse ratio to the range of their enquiries or their attainments.
