There are multitudes of such persons at the present day, and Brooke is one of the few preachers who have appealed to them. On the side of his nature which lay open to beauty he had a range of vision wider than is given to ordinary men. He saw beauty where science sees only truth, where philosophy sees only a moral law, and where the eye of sense, blinded by covetous desires, sees nothing at all. As he studied science and philosophy, as he read the Bible, as he walked with nature and man his ima...gination took up the material before him, and wrought it into the fabric of a beautiful dream. Through the things and persons of the visible world, through the creations of art and poetry, through goodness and noble character he was continually receiving the message of an unseen and eternal loveliness. In this he resembled many of the poets, especially Wordsworth, whose influence had been profoundly with him from his earliest years, and of whom he professed himself a disciple. And yet, taking them all in all, it would be hard to find two characters, two men, more unlike than William Wordsworth and Stopford Brooke.
