[30] Warburton, a shrewd observer enough, expressed the same view a
hundred years ago, with characteristic truculence:--"Mathematicians--I
do not mean the inventors and geniuses amongst them, whom I honour, but
the Demonstrators of others' inventions, who are ten times duller and
prouder than a damned poet--have a strange aversion to everything that
smacks of religion."--_Letters to Hurd_, xix.

[35] What Wordsworth says is--

"We live by Admiration, Hope, and Love, And, even as these are well and
wisely fixed, In dignity of being we ascend."

This is widely different from the nude proposition that "we live by
admiration."

[37] A good deal of information about Theophilanthropy and the
Theophilanthropists, in an undigested and, indeed, chaotic state, will
be found in Gregoire's "Histoire des Sectes Religieuses," vol. i.

[38] The Theophilanthropists were most anxious that the object of their
worship should not be supposed to be the Christian God. Thus in one of
their hymns their Deity is invoked as follows:--

"Non, tu n'es pas le _Dieu_ dont le pretre est l'apotre, Tu n'as point
par la Bible enseigne les humains."

[39] The author of "Natural Religion" says, Talleyrand; I do not know on
what authority. Gregoire writes:--"Au Directoire meme on le raillait sur
son zele theophilantropique. Un de ses collegues, dit-on, lui proposait
de se faire pendre et de ressusciter le troisieme jour, comme
l'infaillible moyen de faire triompher sa secte, et Carnot lui decoche
dans son _Memoire_ des epigrammes sanglantes a ce sujet."--_Histoire des
Sectes Religieuses_, vol. I. p. 406. Talleyrand was never a member of
the Directory.

[43] "Analogy." Part I. c. i. I give, of course, Bishop Butler's words
as I find them, but, as will be seen a little later, I do not quite take
his view of the supernatural.

[46] I say "_primary_ cause;" of course I do not deny _its own proper
causality_ to the non-spiritu
