I am glad you reminded me of it. Migration was the source of the evil ; Christianity the dam on which it broke. It was chiefly by Christianity that the raw, wild hordes which came flooding in were controlled and tamed. The savage man must first of all learn to kneel, to venerate, to obey ; after that, he can be civilised. This was done in Ireland by St. Patrick, in Germany by Winifried the Saxon, who was a genuine Boniface. It was migration of peoples, the last advance of Asiatic races towards ...Europe, followed only by the fruitless at- tempts of those under Attila, Genghis Khan, and Timur, and as a comic afterpiece, by the gipsies, — it was this movement which swept away the humanity of the ancients. Christianity was precisely the prin- ciple which set itself to work against this savagery ; just as later, through the whole of the Middle Age, the Church and its hierarchy were most necessary to set limits to the savage barbarism of those masters of A DIALOGUE. 30 violence, the princes and knights : it was what broke up the ice-floes in that mighty deluge.
