First sentence: OF all the topographical questions relating to Jerusalem those connected with the site of the Holy Sepulchre are so incomparably the most important, that no further explanation will be asked for giving them precedence; and if any apology be required for attempting a defence of the tradition relating to this site, it is offered in the consideration that the credit of the whole Church for fifteen hundred years is in some measure involved in its veracity.
