thirst for God and the Beyond, his indefatig- 

 able love of work, his tenacious enthusiasm 

 for study, his irresistible craving for soli- 

 tude, the strange, powerful, striking and pic- 

 turesque grace of his language, his almost 

 rustic 'simplicity, his blunt frankness, his 

 proud timidity, his no less proud inde- 

 pendence, and with all these the ingenuous 

 and unusual sensitiveness and sincere modesty 

 of his character.
