Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primeval Symbols, or the Analogy of Creation and New-Creation The love of knowledge is one Of the strongest feelings of our nature. Lord Bacon has remarked that it was by the love of knowledge that man fell, and we have daily experience that this same love of knowledge has survived the Fall, and however perverted and depraved, still re mains one of the deepest seated principles of our nature; now all our knowledge arises from the study Of the works and the Word of the Great Creator and consists in the perception of the various relations (taking the word in its widest signification) which His works bear to each other and to Himself; and these works are full of analogies and of analogies within analogies, or in the language of the son of Sirach, all things are made double one against another it cannot then fail to be interesting to trace out one of these analogies, perhaps the most striking and important Of them all.
