"
Pierre
listened
with
swelling
heart
,
gazing
into
the
Mason
's
face
with
shining
eyes
,
not
interrupting
or
questioning
him
,
but
believing
with
his
whole
soul
what
the
stranger
said
.
Whether
he
accepted
the
wise
reasoning
contained
in
the
Mason
's
words
,
or
believed
as
a
child
believes
,
in
the
speaker
's
tone
of
conviction
and
earnestness
,
or
the
tremor
of
the
speaker
's
voice
--
which
sometimes
almost
broke
--
or
those
brilliant
aged
eyes
grown
old
in
this
conviction
,
or
the
calm
firmness
and
certainty
of
his
vocation
,
which
radiated
from
his
whole
being
(
and
which
struck
Pierre
especially
by
contrast
with
his
own
dejection
and
hopelessness
)
--
at
any
rate
,
Pierre
longed
with
his
whole
soul
to
believe
and
he
did
believe
,
and
felt
a
joyful
sense
of
comfort
,
regeneration
,
and
return
to
life
.
"
He
is
not
to
be
apprehended
by
reason
,
but
by
life
,
"
said
the
Mason
.

"
I
do
not
understand
,
"
said
Pierre
,
feeling
with
dismay
doubts
reawakening
.
He
was
afraid
of
any
want
of
clearness
,
any
weakness
,
in
the
Mason
's
arguments
;
he
dreaded
not
to
be
able
to
believe
in
him
.
"
I
do
n't
understand
,
"
he
said
,
"
how
it
is
that
the
mind
of
man
can
not
attain
the
knowledge
of
which
you
speak
.
"
The
Mason
smiled
with
his
gentle
fatherly
smile
.
"
The
highest
wisdom
and
truth
are
like
the
purest
liquid
we
may
wish
to
imbibe
,
"
he
said
.
"
Can
I
receive
that
pure
liquid
into
an
impure
vessel
and
judge
of
its
purity
?
Only
by
the
inner
purification
of
myself
can
I
retain
in
some
degree
of
purity
the
liquid
I
receive
.
"
"
Yes
,
yes
,
that
is
so
,
"
said
Pierre
joyfully
.

"
The
highest
wisdom
is
not
founded
on
reason
alone
,
not
on
those
worldly
sciences
of
physics
,
history
,
chemistry
,
and
the
like
,
into
which
intellectual
knowledge
is
divided
.
The
highest
wisdom
is
one
.
The
highest
wisdom
has
but
one
science
--
the
science
of
the
whole
--
the
science
explaining
the
whole
creation
and
man
's
place
in
it
.
To
receive
that
science
it
is
necessary
to
purify
and
renew
one
's
inner
self
,
and
so
before
one
can
know
,
it
is
necessary
to
believe
and
to
perfect
one
's
self
.
And
to
attain
this
end
,
we
have
the
light
called
conscience
that
God
has
implanted
in
our
souls
.
"
"
Yes
,
yes
,
"
assented
Pierre
.
"
Look
then
at
thy
inner
self
with
the
eyes
of
the
spirit
,
and
ask
thyself
whether
thou
art
content
with
thyself
.
What
hast
thou
attained
relying
on
reason
only
?
What
art
thou
?
You
are
young
,
you
are
rich
,
you
are
clever
,
you
are
well
educated
.
And
what
have
you
done
with
all
these
good
gifts
?
Are
you
content
with
yourself
and
with
your
life
?
