Excerpt from Pilgrims in the Region of Faith: Amiel, Tolstoy, Pater, Newman, a Thesis With Illustrations

It was one of the happy surmises of simpler days - a surmise which received much support in well-tested facts - that, by the benign appointment of God, wherever poisonous plants were to be found ready to deceive the unwary, or creeping things with poison in their tongues, there also were to be found the very herbs and balms which would grapple with the element of death in them; that the soil which bore the bane, nourished the antidote.
