Ruskin echoes John Keble 's famous hymn,' New every morning is the love'. In 1839, Ruskin's winning Newdigate prize poem, in which he referred to Narrative of a Journey... from Calcutta to Bombay (1828; Works, 2.100) by Bishop Heber (1783-1826), had been edited by Keble, then Professor of Poetry at Oxford ( Works, 2.xxvi) and a leading Tractarian; and Keble's The Christian Year, which opens with 'New every morning', was later to accompany Ruskin to the Alps, like the poems of George Herbert (see Evans and Whitehouse, Diaries II, p.498). Heber's morning hymn is based on Revelation 4, in which the throne of God is described, and ends with praise of the 'Blessed Trinity' which anticipates both this particular Ruskin passage and the sectional organization of Modern Painters I: 'All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea'. (See Wheeler, Ruskin's God, pp.35-36 and Ruskin and religion.)
