Seite 141 - In Devotional Literature and Religious Thought, I find nothing of ours that does not pale before Augustine, Tauler and Pascal. And in the Poetry of the Church it is the Latin or the German hymns, or the lines of Charles Wesley, or of Zeble, that fasten on my memory and heart, and make all else seem poor and cold.
