First sentence: WE have hitherto made our Enquiry after the Origin of Things, as well as after a true Knowledge of Paradife among the Ancients; yet ftill with reference to Sacred Writ, where it gave us any Manner of Light into the Subject, but think it altogether unneceffary to define the Place or Situation of Paradife; fince, in Refpect to the Theory of the Earth, it is much the fame Thing where you place it, provided it be not on our modern Earth.
