THE CONGRESS OF WOMEN.

177

Beware lest we join on to things from shallow motives before there is anything in us fit to root itself in the eternal laws of growth.

Beware of the tyranny of organization, of that partizan spirit which exacts wor­ship of some intellectual or artisticcult as if these were absolute truth and beauty.

Beware of that spiritual dogmatism which makes the phrasing more than the message in all that feeds lifes nobler part.
