Excerpt from Lances Hurled at the Sun
Tennyson, in Locksley Hall, sings of young barbarians who hurl their lances in the sun, and the savage play brings our thought to the work of civilized agencies men who aim their shafts at the Sun of Truth, the Catholic Church, and, in their mad fancies, think they can pierce the orb, destroy its shining, and undo the beneficent heat that fills the world with the flowers and fruits of intellect and grace.
