Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through a Needle's Eye, Vol. 2 of 2 Then there rushed through his mind the recollection that he had once filled this place, and quitted it, to go up, as he thought, to one higher. He had ceased to be the vicar of Herford in order to become its master. The broad acres, with their promising outlets into worldly prosperity, had seemed better to him, more worthy of his powers, than the charge of these poor peasant souls. It was true he had given to them a better pastor than he had been himself. Yet all the same, his own choice had been the owning of lands, and the possession Of influence and reputation, and the good things of this life. He had deluded himself with the fancy that he was serving God. He had in fact been serving Mammon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
