—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
“When I was young ... there never was any question about right and wrong. We knew our catechism, and that was enough; we learned our creed and our duty. Every respectable Church person had the same opinions. But, now if you speak out of the Prayer-book itself, you are liable to be contradicted.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“His creed no parson ever knew,
For this was still his “simple plan,”
To have with clergymen to do
As little as a Christian can.”
—Francis, Sir Doyle (1810–1888)
