Excerpt from Reminiscences
Very few people have had so fine a gift for friendship as Arthur Coleridge at the same time his versatility was so great, and his many sides so delightful, that no memoir written by any one of his friends could possibly give an adequate idea of what he was, unless that person could be supposed to combine the functions of a bishop, an opera singer, and a judge. In any of these capacities Coleridge would have left his mark upon the world, and in any of them he would have paid homage to those who were prominent in the other two. His inexhaust ible fund of admiration was due to no snobbery of the mind, but was a natural recognition of personal achievement and official dignity. His religious faith was childlike and steadfast, and attendance at a daily service was almost essential to his happiness and well-being. This devotion to the church of his fathers passed on to her.
