　became　mighty　men

which　were　of　old；　men　of　renown。〃

Over　this　Ursula　was　stirred　as　by　a　call　from　far　off。　In

those　days；　would　not　the　Sons　of　God　have　found　her　fair；　would

she　not　have　been　taken　to　wife　by　one　of　the　Sons　of　God？　It

was　a　dream　that　frightened　her；　for　she　could　not　understand

it。

Who　were　the　sons　of　God？　Was　not　Jesus　the　only　begotten

Son？　Was　not　Adam　the　only　man　created　from　God？　Yet　there　were

men　not　begotten　by　Adam。　Who　were　these；　and　whence　did　they

mortal　woman。　He　had　begotten　in　her　a　giant；　a　hero。

Very　good；　so　he　had；　in　Greece。　For　herself；　she　was　no

Grecian　woman。　Not　Jove　nor　Pan　nor　any　of　those　gods；　not　even

Bacchus　nor　Apollo；　could　e　to　her。　But　the　Sons　of　God　who

took　to　wife　the　daughters　of　men；　these　were　such　as　should

take　her　to　wife。

She　clung　to　the　secret　hope；　the　aspiration。　She　lived　a

dual　life；　one　where　the　facts　of　daily　life　enpassed

everything；　being　legion；　and　t
