That great mystery of TIME, were there no other; the illimitable, silent, never-resting thing called time, rolling, rushing on, swift, silent, like an all-embracing ocean-tide, on which we and all the universe swim like exhalations, like apparitions which ARE, and then ARE NOT: this is forever very literally a miracle; a thing to strike us dumb,—for we have no word to speak about it.

CARLYLE.
