Were it possible to realize the idea, that only a single copy. Of the bible was upon earth, and that all mankind knew. Where it was deposited, with what delight would myriads. Hasten to the favoured spot! What pilgrimages would be undertaken, to catch even a glimpse of the inestimable treasure! Kings would lay down their crowns before it; and Sages press, from the shades of retirement and the schools of science, to partake of wisdom at the fountain which Mercy had unlocked.
