He must have been sadly per- plexed and agitated till he came to rest, as in a quiet haven after a tempestuous voyage, in a new system of faith and practice. ... It was they (i. E. The superior spirits), as he now believed, and not he himself, who made the strong wind to blow. " ^ Such is Frazer's theory of the origin of religion out of magic.
