perience. of all ages teaches us, further, that
Christianity has only attained a firin and liY-

tendency, if working xitally, it bears with il,
the germ of all human civilization, however
gradually this may be developed Christianity

amongst others. It could indeed there. as IN
all other case, find access butf it really OBJ
tanned firm footing. itinust bring about a
complete revolution in tho whole mode Of iiy-
ling. Wisely, therefore, did the first Christian
teachers of lhc barbarous nations inpart a
knowledge of letters with that Christianity,
for the sake of Christianity. and also to be the
germ Of all future culture for the people and
thecountry. Thus,in the fourth century, the
admirableR phila invented an alphabet for his
Goths and gave them the word of God in their
ownlanguage Patrick gave letters as wel as
Christianity to the Irish; he impaired to his
scholars the little store of knowledge which
he possessed, and also zeal for the attainment
Of more. The converts Of ireland, insured by
their isolated position against the ruin which
fell on the rest of Europe, became schools
where, in quiet solitude, religion and science
where cherished in close connection with one
another, and from which both Christianity
and the germs of scientific culture were trans
tplanted into other countries; as Abbot Alcuin
