Excerpt from Prismatics
A preface is a happy medium between the author and the public. It is usually apologetic too, and therefore modest - like a veil; I will not say how transparent.
Gentle Reader, -
I do not pretend to exhibit truth, clear and pellucid, but rather, as the title indicates, tinctured with imperfections.
Life is many-hued, -
"Life, like a dome of many-colored glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity."
The purest are not immaculate; the impure, though double-dyed with guilt, have some tinge of humanity - some obscured indication of divine origin; we are all more or less prismatic.
