Some sketches of the creation, the original and present state of men and
animals in our system of beings, the fall of man and other obscure scenes
of antiquity, have been drawn from the sacred characters made use of by
the Priests and Druids to preserve their original, ancient and secret
knowledge, in order to illustrate the present subject, and setting the
present confused, deluded, or enchanted state of language and knowledge
in a right course and direction. But the press not admitting of their
being exhibited in that order and mode, which seemed to be necessary
for a compleat transmission of the sacred hieroglyfics, the following
specimen must suffice for the present.
