that period, christianity has undertaken

their success has been Unparalleled
The silver trumpet Of Zion has been
blown in the benIghtcd regions OF idela-
trous darkness. Thus has yoltaire and
his whole band Of philosophers contriLut-

lisious truths which they laboured so un-
ceasingly to oVerlurn: so true is that
passage OF divine inspiration, that the
wrath OF man shall work the praise Of
God, and that the remainder of that
wrath he will restrain" We cannot quit
