“—_And there was a fire on the hearth burning before him_.
“_And it came to pass_, _that when Jehudi had read three or four
leaves_, _he cut it with the penknife and cast it into the fire that
was on the hearth_, _until all the roll was consumed in the fire that
was on the hearth_.”
IF among the vast multitude which is now thronging this sacred building,
there be one who has come up hither with the expectation that it would be
my object to excite or fan a flame of bitter hostility against the
members of the Church of Rome, I trust that he will be disappointed.
