"When
the sense of beauty has risen from a pleasant feeling to a passion... the world
seems charged with a new vitality; with a splendour which does not belong to it
but is poured through it, as light through a coloured window, grace through a
sacrament...
In such moods of heightened consciousness each crystal seems fierce with meaning, and becomes a well of wondrous light: a "little sapphire set in the City of God."
