Excerpt from The Angel in the Sun: Glimpses of the Light EternalWhen, therefore, John saw this angel standing in the sun, he was looking at a point where the two worlds approached each other, the lowest in that and the highest in this, his eye was following the line where the natural and the supernatural come close to gether and are dependent upon each other.Moreover, the angel was in the sun, the light of the natural world tipping his wings, illumining his face, gilding his whole being and thus calling it into prominence and dis tinction.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
