And now, returning to the broader question, what these arts and labours of life have to teach us of its mystery, this is the first of their lessons-that the more beautiful the art, the more it is essentially the work of people who ... are striving for the fulfilment of a law, and the grasp of a loveliness, which they have not yet attained....
