We shall see it at the bottom of those two opposite sets of pleasures, to the one or the other of which all human pleasures belong.

The source of one is an impassioned struggle after the supernatural right, or an impassioned sense of rest upon attaining it; the source of the other is the sense of revolt against it, which in various ways flatters or excites us.

In both cases the supernatural moral judgment is the sense appealed to, primarily in the first case, and secondarily if not primarily in the second.

All the life about us is coloured by this, and naturally if this be destroyed or wrecked, the whole aspect of life will change for us.

What then will this change be?
Looking still into the mirror of art, the general character of it will be very readily perceptible.
