Excerpt from Twelve Lectures on the Connexion Between Science and Revealed Religion: Delivered in Rome
Among my audience I counted men, whose repu tation, in their respective departments of literature and science, might have made me shrink from my com plicated task; yet I found them assiduous in their attendance, and encouraging in their judgment. They joined in a wish, repeatedly expressed by most of my hearers, that these Lectures should be communicated to the public: and I came over to England, chiefly to carry this desire into execution. But then a further change appeared necessary to prepare them for the press.
