First sentence: "ON the subject of inspiration," wrote Mr. Walter Scott, in his edition of the Hermetica, "Egyptians, Hebrews and Greeks thought much alike, from the earliest times to which we can trace back their thoughts ; and in the time of the Roman Empire, Pagans, Jews and Christians spoke of it in similar terms" (Vol. III. p. 5).
