Is not the evidence of ease on the very front of all the greatest works in existence? Do they not say plainly to us, not "there has been a great effort here," but "there has been a great power here"?
It is not the weariness of mortality, but the strength of divinity, which we have to recognize in all mighty things and this is just what we now never recognize, but think that we are to do great things by the help of iron bars and perspiration. Alas! we shall do nothing that way, but lose some pounds of our own weight.—
