| But why should I presume to expound that soul's philosophy;
| could I enter fully into it he would have no private personality --
| he would not be the mysterious Island that every soul is to every
| other.  No, I dare not attempt to fathom the awful depths of that
| child's possibilities;  when he grows up, in some way and to some
| degree he will manifest his character, his philosophy;  then we
| can judge as much of it as we can see, but its intrinsic worth
| we never can judge;  it is hid forever in the bosom of its God.
