Summerisle Reprise

Lord Summerisle:
"And the ministers fled the island never to return.
What my grandfather started out of expediency,

And the rituals of the old gods; to love nature and to fear it,
And to rely on it and to appease it
When necessary. He brought me up —"

Sergeant Howie:

Lord Summerisle:
"A heathen, conceivably, but not, I hope, an unenlightened one."
