Excerpt from English Mystics This book makes no claim to present a detailed and exhaustive criticism of mystical writings in the English tongue, nor to offer a complete or incomplete anthology from these. Its mainjustification, if it have one, is the belief that English Mysticism, while it does and must, in its main features, resemble all genuine mysticism, yet has distinct characters of its own, which shine clearly and obviously in those writers whose debt to non - English predecessors is small or none, and break through that foreign influence even where it exists, showing by elaboration or addition the marked features of the indigenous attitude. As additional justification I would plead that this English contribution is not less individual and valuable than that of the Platonist Christian writers, of the great Latin Mystics (of classical and later ages), of the Flemings or Germans. This is, no doubt, a daring claim. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Mount of Vision: A Book of English Mystic Verse I have used the word religious rather than mystical, not because the terms are precisely equivalent, but because the first is the safer. It is ominous to hear the name of mysticism so easily used, given and taken, without a thought of its cost. It is not long since an interesting novel appeared of which the motive and the whole subject was Mysticism. Visions were easy to come by; and revelations, and such extreme things as the unitive life - things for which the Saints thought fifty years of self-conquest and self-abandonment a paltry price - were discussed as incidents of well-read aspiration. There was no mention of the first step, there was much chatter of the last. No one in the band of confident people engaged in this story in artistic work for a celestial end seemed to have entered upon the indispensable begin nings, to have overcome anything within, to have shut his mouth upon a hasty word, to have dismissed a worldly thought, to have compelled his heart to a diflicult act of pardon, to have forgone beloved sleep, cherished food, conversation, sharp thoughts, or darling pride. The Saints, on the other hand, gave themselves to that spade work before permitting themselves so much as one credible dream.

Excerpt from Mysticism in English Literature Mysticism is, in truth, a temper rather than a doctrine, an atmosphere rather than a system of philosophy. &vario'us mystical thinkers have con tributed fresh aspects of Truth as they saw her, for they have caught glimpses of her face at different angles, transfigured by diverse emotions, so that their testimony, and in some respects their views, are dissimilar to the point of contradiction. Wordsworth, for instance, gained his revelation of divinity through Nature, and through Nature alone whereas to Blake Nature was a hindrance.

Excerpt from Mysticism in Seventeenth-Century English Literature The popularity Of sacred poetry throughout the seventeenth century was by no means a literary fashion. To be sure, Edmund Spenser, who exerted a dominant influence on the writers of the century succeeding, had lived to regret the two Hymnes in the praise Of love and beauty composed in the greener times of my youth, and had Offered as atonement two corresponding hymns on heavenly love and beauty. Sir Philip Sidney's influence, too, wherever the Apology was known, Operated in the same direction. Furthermore, the usage Of French poets somewhat later encouraged Cowley and his contemporaries to handle Biblical story. Thus there came to be something Of a vogue for sacred poetry. But its wide dissemination can not be attributed to fashion alone. The truly significant work of Vaughan, Traherne, Crashaw, Norris, Drummond, and many others came in response to the growing seriousness of the nation's temperament. Naturally, during the long and bitter conflict between the factions of the church, men's minds were chiefly engrossed in religious questions, and many poets turned from erotic songs to dedicate their talents to the church.

Excerpt from Mystics All There was another repartee of Sammy's that I remember which would have pleased the theologians. We had a companion called Dicky (his people lived next door to Sammy's), of whom Sammy was very anxious to make a Catholic. Dicky was a hardened pagan, but Sammy was convinced that if we could but get him into church during Benediction, the sight of the Blessed Sacrament must instantly convert him to the truth. I had my doubts, I am ashamed to say, but Sammy had none, albeit that he had taken not a few Protestant companions to church in. His time. Dicky took some persuading - he had congenital suspicions of Romanism - but at length Sammy's vigorous invocations succeeded so far that one day Dicky consented to accompany us to Exposition. We knelt at the far end of the church, and Sammy prayed his best and hardest, while Dicky stared in wonder at the blaze of candles and the strange central object. At last, suddenly, and rather to our alarm, Dicky spoke up. I can hear his shrill child's treble breaking the dead silence. But the clock's got no hands! He said.
