Excerpt from Christian Belief and Life
I have been alone on mountains, in deep glens, in dense forests, many leagues from human dwellings; but I have never felt so lonely as in the crowded streets of a great and strange city, where I was uncared for and unknown, - where I might have fallen in sudden death, and the ripple thus made in the eddying life around me would have been as transient as when a pebble is dropped into a river. A feeling like this cannot but come over us as dwellers in this crowded city of our God, this vast and multitudinous creation. What are we who are of yesterday, and to-morrow maybe no more, in a universe swarming with unnumbered and infinitely varied forms of life within, and still more, no doubt, beyond our sphere of vision?
