GEORGE BORROW IN EAST ANGLIA
by WILLIAM A. DUTT
“The foregoing generations beheld God and Nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should we not also enjoy an original relation to the universe? . . . The sun shines to-day also. There is more wool and flax in the fields. Let us demand our own works, and laws, and worship.”—Emerson.
