“Waft, waft, ye winds, his story; And you, ye waters, roll; Till, like a sea of glory, It spreads from pole to pole; Till o’er our ransomed nature, The Lamb for sinners slain, Redeemer, King, Creator, In bliss returns to reign. Amen. “There will be a Lecture delivered in the Nave, on Missions, by Professor Max Müller, M.A. Ps. 100 (_New Version_) _Old Hundredth_ (p. 21). “With one consent let all the earth To God their cheerful voices raise; Glad homage pay with awful mirth, And sing before Him songs of praise. “Convinced that He is God alone, From Whom both we and all proceed; We whom He chooses for His own, The flock that He vouchsafes to feed. “O enter then His temple gate, Thence to His courts devoutly press; And still your grateful hymns repeat, And still His Name with praises bless. “For He’s the Lord supremely good, His mercy is forever sure; His truth, which all times firmly stood, To endless ages shall endure. Amen.”] [Footnote 2: Different systems of classification applied to the religions of the world are discussed in my _Introduction to the Science of Religion_, pp. 122-143.] [Footnote 3: “Proselyto ne fidas usque ad vigesimam quartam generationem,” Jalkut Ruth, f. 163. d; Danz, in Meuschen, _Nov.

Any number of outsiders, so long as they do not interfere with established castes, can form a new caste, and call themselves Hindus, and the Brahmans are always ready to receive all who submit to and pay them.” Can this be called proselytizing?] [Footnote 5: Cf. _Mahavanso_, cap. 5.] [Footnote 6: Cf. _Mahavanso_, cap. 12.] [Footnote 7: In some of the places mentioned by the _Chronicle_ as among the earliest stations of Buddhist missions, relics have been discovered containing the names of the very missionaries mentioned by the _Chronicle_.
