Again, though the craving for sympathy hardly ever fails to follow close on the experience of deep feeling; and though, as we shall presently see, fine art is but an extension of language whose chief end is intercommunion of ideas, yet this altruist end of fine art is not of its essence, but of its superabundance and overflow.
"The Faith of the Millions (2nd series)"
George Tyrrell
By means of this psychism, or this outworking of soul power, there may be kept up reciprocal action or intercommunion between what are usually called the material and spiritual worlds, both of which absolutely are natural, and are pervaded by interacting natural forces which are at the service of peculiarly endowed, or constituted, or unfolded persons, who are, or may become, competent and disposed to use them.
"Witchcraft of New England Explained by Modern Spiritualism"
Allen Putnam
Look where we will among the blossoms, we find the same beautiful plan of intercommunion and reciprocity everywhere demonstrated.
