The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

August 27

For out imagination is, in small,

And with the making-difference that must be,

Mirror of God's creating mirror; all

That shows itself therein, that formeth he,

And there is Christ, no bodiless vanity,

Though, face to face, the mighty perfectness

With glory blurs the dim-reflected less.
