We are thus brought back to our seeming paradox, that a philosophy
which does not seek to impose upon the world its own
conceptions
of
good and evil is not only more likely to achieve truth, but is also
the outcome of a higher ethical standpoint than one which, like
evolutionism and most traditional systems, is perpetually appraising
the universe and seeking to find in it an embodiment of present
ideals.

Down lapsing to the utmost depths of all,
Till wan

Creeps like an incantation on the soul,

Dies the thin flush of the last conscious feeling,

Of sullen passions ebbs far, far away,-
