Look inside the book:

A community of young men, generously bred and taught, living together so intimately in that mediaeval place, with its own old usages and traditions and ways of thinking; shut out, as by a high wall, from the world outside; aloof from the vulgar needs of life; concerned, many of them, only with its theoretic problems, interested more, perhaps, in the ancient Greeks than in contemporary affairsand, indeed, not unlike the Greeks in their care for the clearness and beauty of the mind, the athletic strength of the bodysurely, Foley thought, the young Methodist could not have found so delightful a place in all the world beside. How much he was really influenced by it Foley could not tell; certainly as the months went by he seemed to be more aware of the beauty of Oxford; he would stop sometimes of his own accord to look through a blue gateway or down a sunlit street, and once Foley saw him standing, a quaint figure, under the University Church, and gazing up at the spireat the religious statues there, which seemed to be voyaging through the windy sky and among its great white clouds.
