First sentence: I HAVE undertaken then, as will have sufficiently appeared from the tenor of the foregoing preface, to submit to my readers a varied body of strictly historical evidence, the result of which to my own mind has been to force upon me the conviction, that the civilised world has hitherto acquiesced without the necessary wariness and circumspection in the account which the Roman and Greek literature, the product of minds living under subjection to the reigning Polytheism, has given of the early religious character of the Roman city.
