Synopsis
Excerpt from Helen Potter's Impersonations
In all ages we have had artists and orators; people who held the sacred fire as their inheritance among men an inheritance more powerful than gold, or wonderful jew els, or landed estates. These men and women were leaders of their time, and even unto this day are held in great ven eration and esteem. And the works of artists in clay, marble, and iron, and on canvas are enduring, and eagerly sought for. But the most wonderful of all, the power of the human voice, goes to the winds and is lost forever. Seek as we may, the winds tell us not of these masters of oratory and song. Their master tones reach not our ears, and we know of their power only by tradition.
