SOME years ago; in an address at Edinburgh; I spoke of the triple gospel which man has publishedof his soul; of his goods; of his body。 This third gospel; the gospel of his body; which brings man into relation with nature; has been a true evangelion; the glad tidings of the final conquest of nature by which man has redeemed thousands of his fellow men from sickness and from death。

If; in the memorable phrase of the Greek philosopher; Prodicus; 〃That which benefits human life is God;〃 we may see in this new gospel a link betwixt us and the crowning race of those who eye to eye shall look on knowledge; and in whose hand nature shall be an open bookan approach to the glorious day of which Shelley sings so gloriously:

     Happiness And Science dawn though late upon the earth; Peace cheers the mind; health renovates the frame; Disease and pleasure cease to mingle here; Reason and passion cease to combat there; Whilst mind unfettered o'er the earth extends Its all…subduing energies; and wields The sceptre of a vast dominion there。

(Daemon of the World; Pt。 II。)
