WEIGHT OF GLORY

Abstract

In his beautiful peroration at the end of his sermon "The Weight of Glory," C. S. Lewis, after commenting on the immortality of the human soul, says, "This does not mean that we are to be perpetually solemn. We must play. But our merriment must be of that kind (and it is, in fact, the merriest kind) which exists between people who have, from the outset, taken each other seriously."
