And falling with my weight of cares
Upon the great world’s altar-stairs
That slope thro’ darkness up to God,”

“The cultivation of one set of faculties tends to the disuse of others. The loss of one faculty sharpens others; the blind are sensitive in touch. Has not the extreme cultivation of the commercial faculty permitted others as essential to national life, to be blighted by disease?”
