Book excerpt: "The Golden Censer" is a philosophical book by the author John McGovern famed for the book, "Worlds without End." McGovern makes the point that life is to be extracted of its rich treasure before it taken away in time. He surmises that, "A golden censer swings in the Temple of Life, making holy its halls and grateful its corridors. This fountain of our well-being is Duty. There is little true pleasure in the world which does not flow, either directly or remotely, from its depths. It shall be the object of this volume to point out and name a few of the balms which burn in this Unseen Censer—a few of the lines of action which render our memories sweet and forever pleasant if they be wrapt in such perfume."
