“_It is absolutely necessary to meet them” [infidel writers of the
modern school] “on their own ground, and fight them with their
own weapons. And this is what the little book at the head of this
article professes to do; and it does its work well. It is learned
and logical, and at the same time lively and entertaining. Its irony
is very powerful and cutting, and yet it is not open to the apparent
objection of grave and serious subjects being treated flippantly._
_Whilst from the nature of the subject, it might fairly be entitled_
Theological Fragments, _from the method in which the subject is
treated it is as interesting as a collection of scenes of society_.”
