1 64 PERSIAN MINIATURES tion of the good Sefevaean : in the last we see how splendid Persian painting could be in its decline. I wish I could have reproduced examples to show how glorious was its youth and early manhood.
COUNTERCHECK QUARREL- SOME I HASTEN to accept Mr. Randall Davies's offer New 1 of friendship, I doubt whether much though good can come of it if we are to go on arguing about aesthetics. We are too far apart. What Mr. Davies feels for a picture is some- thing altogether different from what he feels for a carpet, whereas the emotion I feel for a carpet is of exactly the same kind as the emotion I feel for a picture, a statue, a cathe- dral, or a pot. Also, my whole system of aesthetics is based on this psychological fact, so that it would, perhaps, have been wiser in Mr. Davies to have stated the difference between us and let it go at that. If some one were to find fault with the New Statesman on account of the flimsiness and inadequacy of the arguments it adduces in favour of private ownership of railways, 1 I wonder what Mr. Davies really said. Any one who cares to know has only to consult the New Statesman for March 7 or 14, 1914. I have not a copy by me. It looks as though there had been a pretty firm offer of some sort : it came to nothing, alas ! 165
