Excerpt from From Old to New
It cannot have failed to strike the attention of those who have been more or less regular listeners to the lectures which I have been giving here during the last six months, that during that period I have gradually changed, and perhaps in a measure unconsciously, the style of the subjects lectured upon; gradually moving away from theology, first through the point where theology blends with morality, then again through the point where morality blends with matters social and political, until perhaps the question has not unnaturally arisen in the minds of some, 'Where are we going to?' If I might compare the whole range of possible subjects for discussion to the solar spectrum, it would seem as if we had gradually left the examination of one end of the spectrum for the examination of the other, passing through all the intermediate hues; and that the fear of some may be lest we should pass beyond the region of the visible rays of thought into the region of the obscure rays.
