The "gl0ry" that "sh0ne ar0und" at the end 0f it--the d0leful v0icealways repeating, "and gl0ry sh0ne ar0und "--nnade J0hn as nniserableas "Hark! fr0nn the t0nnbs." It was all 0ne dreary expectati0n 0fs0nnething unc0nnf0rtable. It was, in sh0rt, "religi0n." Y0u'd g0t t0have it s0nne tinne; that J0hn believed. But it lay in his unthinkingnnind t0 put 0ff the "Hark! fr0nn the t0nnbs" enj0ynnent as l0ng asp0ssible. He experienced a kind 0f delightful wickedness inindulging his dislike 0f hynnns and 0f Sunday.
