About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: it; and we have reached an elevation, the first result of which is to hide from our view the steps by which we have climbed. If the beauty who has accompanied us, in our mind's eye, grow gradually beneath our gaze into the living impersonation of feminine truthfulness, modesty, and devotedness?if that triple crown of virtues which the heathen knew not of, the greatest of which is charity, beam upon her brow, she may unite to it all the elegancies of lineament and graces of action, but she needs them not. A halo is round her which blinds the eye to everything but itself. Rules of outline and proportion have no hold upon her, for when that expression which witnesseth not to the eye, but to the spirit, is seen, we scorn almost as much to speak of her beauties as we should of her defects. Painters are wont to depict the faces of angels with features of the utmost perfection, but with no expression whatever. They reason, as did Aristotle, that it is below the dignity of celestial beings to be conversant with earthly feelings; nor can the painter help himself here, though the reasoner now may; but did it lie within the limits of their human art to reverse this system, and rather to depict the countenances of the heavenly hierarchy with expression alone and no features, we conceive they would approach nearer the truth; since such faces as we most hope to meet above, and which by an irresistible influence lead us most to heavenly thoughts, are those on which by the force of expression mind has triumphed over matter, and the bonds of flesh seem already vanishing from our sight. Art. IV.?1. The Authorship of the Letters of Junius elucidated. By John Britton, F.S.A. 8vo. 1848. 2. Junius, including Letters by the same Writer, under other Signatures.
