And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Gen. i. 2. Some time ago, out on the A tlantic, far beyond the sight of land, I saw a cloud whose outlines took the form of a great bird. I ts mighty wings were stretched out so as to touch the two horizons, and it seemed like a mother-bird brooding over the entire deep. I recalled the word in Genesis which I have written above, and the marvellous cloud became to me a symbol of the most real but invisible presence of the Lord brooding over the varied waters of human life.
