To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The great immortal realm is waiting merely for our thews to harden and our spirit- ual pulse to beat strong enough for its mighty energies. When we are ready, it is ready. The eye sees only what it brings with it the power of seeing. Why then speculate on what, ECCLESIASTES AND OMAR KHAYYAM. 17 even if described to us, we could not under- stand ? To-morrow we arrive there, where we are going, and know the country by inhabiting it. And that is the only way we can know it. II. But after all, to s...ay we do not know and can- not see is only negative ; it brings the age but a little way toward its spiritual adjustment. No joy, no uplift, can come from what we throw away, however glad we are to relinquish it. Something more than the truce to vague specu- lation is needed, something of positive discovery to account for the grateful sense of revulsion that came in with Omar: something beyond what he can give, though he points the way. And that, I think, is accurately supplied by Ecclesiastes, in the words I quoted at the begin- ning.
