theories of origin to which these essays are
devoted, but with a clumsiness which I was the
last to conceal from myself, for I was as yet

from Calvin the dedication of his commentary
on the Epistle to the Hebrews, in which he
says:--
"Your kingdom is extensive and renowned,
and abounds in many excellences; but its hap-
piness will then only be solid when it adopts
Christ as its chief ruler and governor, so that
it may be defended by his safeguard and pro-

not inconsistent with that elevation in which
you are placed, but it would be far more glori-
ous than all the
triumphs
of the world.

The cloven West doth bury him
What time his
gorgeous

And all the world grows dim;
A funeral moon is lit in heaven's hollow,
And pale the star-lights follow.
