“As the Sun put a circle round the earth and all that it contained, so a man by his vision put a circle round himself. At the centre of this circle his spirit sat, and at the centre of his spirit was a serenity for ever watchful. Sometimes the watchfulness gave an edge of joy in holding at bay the demons and even the vengeful lesser gods, and sometimes it meged with the Sun's light into pure timeless joy.”
