Abstract

From a sermon preached at Portland, Maine. "In that charming volume of Emerson, published anonymously forty years ago, in which he treats of Nature in relation to man, he says that every natural fact is a type of some spiritual fact, and thus becomes a symbol by which to express the spiritual fact. Without this symbolical power of outward nature, we could not have any language. All words, even those expressive of the most refined spiritual abstractions, were originally figurative; they directly expressed some outward thing or action."
