Excerpt from The Choir Invisible: And Other Sermons; Twenty-Third and Twenty-Fourth Series We have a poem and a novel with this title. Why not a sermon, too? The poem is a great one, one of the greatest. The novel? It is more than tolerably good. The sermon? "Measure not the work Till the day's out and the labor done, Then bring your gauges." I have no criticism to offer on Mr. Allen's novel or George Eliot's poem. Hers is the choir invisible of those immortal dead who live again in lives made better by their former living in this hot and dusty world. Mine is the choir invisible of those who, while they are yet alive, do the same work as her immortal dead, and do it generally in a more effective way than they, because they are alive and here. What I am bent upon is to celebrate the quiet side of life, the silent forces of the world, the men and women who without noise or shouting, without repute or fame, contribute something, much, to the sum total of the world's work, the common good, "The bravely dumb who do their deed, And scorn to blot it with a name." In the world below man there are hints and prophecies of what is true of man's estate. How silent for the most part are the processes whereby the earth yields her increase and sustains the wasting heart of man!

"The Choir Invisible" is a novel written by James Lane Allen, an American author known for his works in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The novel, first published in 1897, is set in Kentucky and explores themes of love, duty, and social norms. The story follows the life of Bartholomew St. John, a young man born into a wealthy Kentucky family. Bartholomew is deeply committed to his family and community, and he is expected to fulfill certain social and familial obligations. However, he also harbors a passion for music and a desire for personal fulfillment. As Bartholomew navigates the societal expectations of his time, he grapples with the tension between duty and personal desire. His journey includes romantic entanglements, struggles with his own ambitions, and his search for meaning and purpose in life. The title, "The Choir Invisible," refers to a line from George Eliot's poem "O May I Join the Choir Invisible," which reflects the idea that those who live virtuously and make positive contributions to society become part of an invisible choir of noble souls. James Lane Allen's novel is known for its lyrical and poetic prose, as well as its exploration of the complexities of human relationships and the individual's quest for self-fulfillment within the constraints of society. It provides readers with a glimpse into the culture and values of the American South during the late 19th century. Overall, "The Choir Invisible" is a literary work that delves into the emotional and moral dilemmas faced by its characters and reflects the author's interest in themes related to love, spirituality, and the human condition.
