Excerpt from Enjoying Life, and Other Literary Remains of W. N: P. Barbellion These complicated pieces of animal mechanism never smell of musty age after aeons of evolution. His imagination was fired, and there was, so to say, the flush of dawn over every glowing investigation. He interrogated nature with a fierce inquisitiveness which in amed his approach to everything that came within the survey of his finely-tempered mind, and all was subjected to the acid test of intellectual integrity. That was his outstanding characteristic. He never shirked a fact, ignored a consequence, or feared a conclusion. He faced them, one by one, squarely and boldly. He gripped life by the shoulders, his keen eyes steadily searched its enig matic countenance, stare for stare, and he gazed profoundly into its depths. It exasperated him, enthralled him, baf ed him. He saw its joys, its loveliness, its irony, its perplexities. He traced the comedy of it. He lived the tragedy of it. He com bined uncompromising exactness of inquiry with spiritual apprehension of the indefinable. For that reason he devoted himself to science humbly, almost with reverence; and he buckled on all his armour for the great task.
