And it is well for us to have this experience. Separately from the
desirable transformation effects in preconceived and curiously
wrong superstitions as to one of the greatest eras in everybody

and not always flattering standard for the judgment of contemporary
men and things, so it establishes new ideals, new destinations for

of another thirteenth century of times that is to come and
pushes to ardent action toward his/her attainment.
But separately from this, the deepest value of Mont-Saint-Michel and
Rentals, his/her importance as a revelation of the eternal glory of
art of mediaeval and the elements that have brought him in being are not

and it expresses his/her gratitude that has brought the book inside his
course and determined it publicity in front of the world.
