from what seems to be revealed to us respecting

that mystery.

In the Third Part, or Appendix, will be found a kind of stromata or panarium from my own patristic reading, intended chiefly to excite the Student's desire to learn more for himself of what the early Fathers thought and wrote in days. when the Church's Theologians had to hold their own against an adverse world.

I shall be very thankful if some who read these pages find them helpful towards thinking out their own thoughts into clearness, and defining to themselves the common theological terms which they are daily using.
