Ancient healers

It is a question to-day, whether the ancient inspired healers understood the Science of Christian healing, or

whether they caught its sweet tones, as the natural musician catches the tones of harmony, without being able to explain them. So divinely imbued were they with the spirit of Science, that the lack of the letter could not hinder their work; and that letter, without the spirit, would have made void their practice.
