Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Gathered Waifs "Apelles boasted that he painted for eternity. It was a bold figure of speech that far outstripped the sobriety of truth, for no mortal eye for long centuries has seen a line of his pencil. But that same empty boast, with slight modification, is but the plain, literal truth concerning the minister´s work." The old minister had grown feeble and was not equal to the labors which his extensive parish required. He was a strange old man, but honored and beloved; and unusual indeed must have been the sway which the simple force of mind and heart exercised, for he owned no influence won through external means. As he went forth on the week day, clad in a camblet morning-gown, which however served him the day through, and girded about the waist with coarse twine or a piece of split rope, with wide brimmed felt hat and rough stick, he walked abroad the honored and beloved pastor.
