ABSTRACT
Religion seems to have been founded upon some Establishments in the World; in all which the Terms of Life are laid down at the End of Acceptance of it. It is true, and it may be nam'd as an Objection to this Remark of mine, that the Romans tho' Heathens, and the Grecians by the Study of Philosophy and by the Excellency of their Government in their general or national Capacity. There are in the Czar of Muscovy's Dominions abundance of Wooden Churches; and had not the Country been as full of Wooden Priests, something might have been said for the Religion of the Muscovites. When the Protestants having had the apparent Advantage of the War, obtain'd the everlasting Settlement of their Religion, as well as Liberties thro' the whole Empire. Then with a Brightness on thy Face, An Emanation from that glorious Place; A Joy which no dark Cloud can over-cast, And which, Eternity itself cannot out-last.
