Excerpt from A Manual of Church Decoration and Symbolism All that can be hoped, is that you may be by it inclined to a more intelligent cultivation of that branch of the Tree of Knowledge, whence, at the call of god, Bezaleel and Aholiab plucked the pomegranates, to deck His Tabernacle among men. Hence, too, unnumbered thousands after them, have gathered the ever ripening fruit, for the glorious service of the Sanctuary. I count not myself, by any means, to have apprehended the full increase of the ages; nor, while entering into the labours of others, to have done aught but glean after them. For this, like Ruth, may I not be rebuked, since I have tried only to take what lies ready to any man's hand.
