About this book
Queen Victoria's death gives Arthur F. Winnington Ingram the occasion for four addresses delivered in St. Paul's Cathedral. Published in 1901, the collection turns public mourning into Christian reflection on character. Its subjects are truthfulness, moral courage, the rainbow around the throne, and kindness. Ingram begins with the image of a sunset whose light remains after the sun has gone, using it to consider the influence of the late Queen.
The sermons draw practical lessons from that tribute. The opening address examines sincerity in social life, commerce, and church work, including pressure on employees to act dishonestly and rivalry among Christian workers. The later discussion connects royal influence with biblical images of purity, hope, and divine light.
