Description

Excerpt from Club Essays Tions and aims and ends. Burns thought much good would result if a man could' see himself even as well as other people could see him; a Greek philosopher gratified a gen eral feeling when he sighed forth the advice, Know thyself, while Menander laughed at the imperfection of the advice, and declared it a more important attainment if one could know other people. Murder will out, but this is not true of all the good and bad of human nature. Each soul lives and dies alone. It dwells in a dark room which no one enters. Saint Augustine comes nearest of all the great men of history to having lived and died in a transparent tenement. His soul tore down the heavy curtains and stood forth in full View. He saw himself in a manner so thorough that Burns himself must have felt that in our earth there was one man for whom his couplets were not composed.
