THE ALTAR FIRE
By ARTHUR CHRISTOPHER BENSON
Cecidit autem ignis Domini,
et voravit holocaustum
1907
PREFACE
It will perhaps be said, and truly felt, that the following is a
morbid book. No doubt the subject is a morbid one, because the
book deliberately gives a picture of a diseased spirit. But a
pathological treatise, dealing with cancer or paralysis, is not
necessarily morbid, though it may be studied in a morbid mood.
