>From Chapter 119:

In the midst of the personified impersonal, a personality stands here.
Though but a point at best; whencesoe’er I came; wheresoe’er I go; yet
while I earthly live, the queenly personality lives in me, and feels her
royal rights.

The phrase "but a point at best" qualifies "the queenly personality", is
that correct?
