God, he argues, provided a structured order in human relationships in order to coerce his people into a condition in which moral life can be pursued. This is a book that will delight or enrage people in equal measure. Either way, it will be widely noticed.

She bears her unearthly character on her brow, as her enemies confess, by imputing her miracles to Beelzebub. There is an instinctive feeling of curiosity, interest, anxiety, and awe, mingled together in various proportions, according to the tempers and opinions of individuals, when she makes her appearance in any neighbourhood, rich or poor, in the person of her missioners or her religious communities.
