Sir George Mackenzie, in his "Travels in Iceland, "says that the clergy prevented till 1630, with "mistaken zeal, " thepublication of the Scandinavian Eddas. Huc, the Roman CatholicMissionary, described in such truthful colors the religious influenceof Buddhism in Thibet that his book was put in the _indexexpurga...torius_ at Rome. Balmes, a learned Roman Catholic writer, declares that "Christianity is stripped of a portion of its honors" ifwe trace back any high standard of female purity to the ancientGermans; and so he coolly sets aside as "poetical" the plainstatements of the accurate Tacitus. If we are to believe the accountsgiven of the Jewish Essenes by Josephus, De Quincey thinks, the claimsmade by Christianity are annihilated.
