The old Prior had the answer to Jaspers doubts that would have brought him a measure of peace immediately, but he wasn't listening. Somerset Maugham's stories are brilliant.

To few is given "the dark night of the soul", the ultimate test of faith. Powerful.

and like the many ignorant after... they kneel at the graves of the faithless before. so sayeth.... well me.
