Your Old Men Shall Dream Dreams


“It is of a dream,” he said; “no more than

that; and yet dreams, too, are under the hand

of the good God, so I hold. Some, I know, are

just folly, and tell us nothing but the con-

fusion of our own nature when the controlling

will is withdrawn; but some, I hold, are the

whispers of God, and tell us of what we are

too dull to hear in our waking life. You do

not believe me ? Very well ; then listen."

-         From Father Stein’s Tale, by Robert Hugh Benson
