Excerpt from The Laws of Life, With Special Reference to the Physical Education of GirlsThe traditions of all nations point to a primeval grandeur of the human race, whose glory shines through the mist of ages a golden age, when the gods could visit mortals - when wisdom and innocence were one - when there was no discord in our nature, but freedom was order, to know, to will, to do, were one, when human brotherhood was a present fact - when there was harmony between man and creation, between man and the Creator.A gleam of this bright vision comes to us through the records of every nation, it shines through the mystic writings of the East, through the poetic fables of the West, through the wild sagas of the North and the eye of faith gathering up these scattered rays, bends them' on the Garden of Eden, where in beautiful radi ance we behold the first man, Adam and Eve, Heaven crowned, and in them we may incarnate our ideal of the Human race, harmoniously blending beauty and strength, lofty intelligence, powerful action, and purity of soul.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
