with the monster brought to bay. But I can but look with deep wonder and sorrow on the hunter who, at his ease and in safety, can find pleasure in what involves, for some defenceless creature, wild terror and a death of agony: deeper, if the hunter be one who has pledged himself to preach to men the Religion of universal Love: deepest of all, if it be one of those 'tender and delicate' beings, whose very name serves as a symbol of Love----'thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women'----whose mission here is surely to help and comfort all that are in pain or sorrow!

• 'Farewell, farewell! but this I tell
• To thee, thou Wedding-Guest!
• He prayeth well, who loveth well

• Both man and bird and beast.
• He prayeth best, who loveth best
• All things both great and small;
• For the dear God who loveth us,
• He made and loveth all.'
