It was human and worldly, not lofty nor even reverential, except among the few who had deep religious wants. One of its characteristic features was the acknowledged impotence of the gods to secure future happiness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
