That <strong>the</strong> "sense <strong>of</strong> difference between Right<br />

and Wrong " had filled all Time and all Space for<br />

man, and bodied itself forth into a Heaven and<br />

Hell for him; this constitutes <strong>the</strong> grand feature<br />

<strong>of</strong> those Puritan, Old-Christian Ages; this is <strong>the</strong><br />

element which stamps <strong>the</strong>m as Heroic, and has<br />

rendered <strong>the</strong>ir works great, manlike, fruitful to all<br />

generations. It is by far <strong>the</strong> memorablest achievement<br />

<strong>of</strong> our Species; without that element, in<br />

some form or o<strong>the</strong>r, nothing <strong>of</strong> Heroic had ever<br />

been among us.<br />

Thomas Carlyle.
