And now follows the tale, Dar Ma'rotten, the creation of pure fancy, but one, it should be remarked, which is permeated by a noble idea. To tell in precise terms what moral or other Object the poet had in writing this story would be a pedantic attempt. As appears from the lines quoted, the author deprecates the attempt to mix up fancy and reality. Schiller said at the time The meaning is manifest and any one can see it. And this is true. In so far as there is a moral tendency in the tale, it is in the suggestiveness of the story as a whole. We are in the realm of fable and superstition, but from confused and irregular beginnings the world has finally emerged into a noble presence and holds out the promise of a great future. The grand temple of humanity has risen from its depths, the powers of evil have been turned to a beneficent use, and a busy multi tude lives and thrives in regions which were formerly the haunts of ignorance and superstition. This new world is ruled by three great powers wisdom, outward appearance (or show and forte. Love, the great educator, does not rule, for that is not her mission, but all culture is based on love. The pro found truth expressed in these words may not at first be recognized, but the more we study life, the evolution of nations and of individuals, the more clearly shall we understand its significance.

The most powerful and the most perfect expression of thought and feeling through the medium of oral language must be traced to the mastery of words. N othing is better suited to lead speakers and readers of English into an easy control of this language than the command of the phrase that perfectly expresses the thought. Every speaker's aim is to be heard and understood. A clear, crisp articula tion holds an audience as by the spell Of some irresistible power. The choice word, the correct phrase, are instru ments that may reach the heart, and awake the soul if they fall upon the car in melodious cadence; but if the utterance be harsh and discordant they fail to interest, fall upon deaf ears, and are as barren as seed sown on fallow ground. In language, nothing conduces so emphatically to the har mony of sounds as perfect phrasing — that is, the empha sizing oi the relation of clause to clause, and of sentence to sentence by the systematic grouping of words. The phrase consists usually of a few words which denote a single idea that forms a separate part of a sentence. In this respect it differs from the clause, which is a short sentence that forms a distinct part of a composition, para graph, or discourse. Correct phrasing is regulated by rests.
