" 2 So, too, M. Kenan, speaking of the ages of faith, says of Christianity, that " It evolved order, hierarchy, authority, obedience from the voluntary subjection of wills : it organized the crowd; it disciplined anarchy. What effected this miracle, which astonishes us quite otherwise than pretended infringements of the laws of physical nature? It was the Spirit of Jesus, strongly grafted into His disciples ; the spirit of sweetness, of self-abnegation, of forget- fulness of the present ; that ...unique pursuit of inward joys which kills ambition ; that preference boldly given to childhood; those words perpet- ually repeated as from the lips of Jesus, ' And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant. ' (St. Matt. Xx. 27. )" 3 1 " Prolegomena, " pp. 64, 84. 2 " Middle Ages, " vol. Iii. , chap, ix. , parti. , note (1848. ) 3 "Hibbert Lectures, " p. 159.
