It ang for the following So far as [ know pictures of angelg are from the pen or brush of the old masters, who were men. Now man's conception of an angel is of a being indescribably pure, beautiful and good. In making a picture of one, he must needs select that which most nearly approaches his ideal. That being, therefore, must be a woman, not a man. This fact voices man's high appreciation of woman, Pity that she so often disappoints his faith and dashes to destruction his ideal. But, may be she wouldn't if he measured up within a million or so miles of what he ought to be. Elizabeth Barrett Browning: voiceq woman's thought of man and her relationship to him in the coup- let: “l require all things that are grand and true; All things that a man should be If you give this all, T would stake my life, To be all you demand of me.” J.
