lips；　telling　one

to　put　one's　finger　into　His　wounds；　like　a　villager　gloating　in

his　sores；　repelled　her。　She　was　enemy　of　those　who　insisted　on

the　humanity　of　Christ。　If　He　were　just　a　man；　living　in

ordinary　human　life；　then　she　was　indifferent。

But　it　was　the　jealousy　of　vulgar　people　which　must　insist　on

the　humanity　of　Christ。　It　was　the　vulgar　mind　which　would　allow

nothing　extra…human；　nothing　beyond　itself　to　exist。　It　was　the

almost　wicked　in　her　mother's　attitude。　What　did　Anna　Brangwen；

in　these　years；　care　for　God　or　Jesus　or　Angels？　She　was　the

immediate　life　of　to…day。　Children　were　still　being　born　to　her；

she　was　throng　with　all　the　little　activities　of　her　family。　And

almost　instinctively　she　resented　her　husband's　slavish　service

to　the　Church；　his　dark；　subject　hankering　to　worship　an　unseen
