CHAPTER SIX: The Rival Churches of St.Asaph and St.Osoph.
The church of St.Asaph, more properly call St.Asaph's in the Fields, stands among the elm trees of Plutoria Avenue opposite the university, its tall spire pointing to the blue sky.

Its rector is fond of saying that it seems to him to point, as it were, a warning against the sins of a commercial age.

More particularly does he say this in his Lenten services at noonday, when the businessmen sit in front of him in rows, their bald heads uncovered and their faces stamped with contrition as they think of mergers that they should have made, and real estate that they failed to buy for lack of faith.
The ground on which St.Asaph's stands is worth seven dollars and a half a foot.

The mortgagees, as they kneel in prayer in their long frock-coats, feel that they have built upon a rock.

It is a beautifully appointed church.
