As I lay taking my afternoon rest, my heart said to God, You cannot help me in this; but He did help me, for I was able soon after this to interest myself in things at hand. I heard Mabilleau's lecture on French art in its recent departure. It was brilliant and forcibly stated, but disappointing. He quoted with admiration Baudelaire's hideous poem, Un Carogne. .. .
