u.l. printed: In the Garden where Nature fashioned the Gods to \ endure for all time, how appropriate the Cathedral and its \ spires, as though some colossal edifice of ancient worship \ were crumbling into ruins. One can imagine the body of \ the Cathedral, trampled down by the centuries, still sur- \ mounted by its mutely protesting spires.
