Excerpt from New Measures of the Great Pyramid In the short interval between the printing and publica tion of this book, the estimable John Taylor is dead. During the late spring he had come to know, only too surely, that his mortal career was drawing rapidly to a close, while many years, he considered, might still elapse before his Pyramid discoveries would be appreciated in the world. But he had already calmly resigned himself to believe that he must pass away before the popular prejudice with which a new view is always received can be forgotten. The Cause, ' he wrote recently in a private letter, ' is the grand object; and if in any manner we are able, while on earth, to vindicate the ways of God to men, we have not lived in vain.' But again, rather checking himself, he added: Many must approve before the thought will enter into the popular mind; and if that result ever takes place, I am only one among many who are entitled to any commendation; nay, there is no room for commendation to anyone, for all do but impart what has been given. Paul plants, Apollos waters, but it is God gives the increase. I suppose this is the meaning of the elders casting their crowns before the throne in Revelation iv.'
