Excerpt from Miracles: A Rhapsody
Goo made the country; and Man made the town. Cowrnn.'then what shall we say of Language? The miraculous clothing of still more miraculous Thought P The aerial body, which gives materi ality to emanations of the soul rendering them -not sensible indeed to sight or touch, - but may I say visible, or ought I rather to say palpable, to the ear P So impossible is it to consider language as of contrivance merely human, that the wise and learned all concur in holding it to have been a direct gift from the Creator and which is en joyed by the children of Adam, as a sort of hereditary inspiration.

The author examines both the meaning and importance of miracles throughout history, and reflects on their relevance in the present day. Exploring the concept of the miraculous through the lens of science, the author argues that our understanding of what is possible should never limit our appreciation for the wonders that surround us. By examining miracles through this lens and discussing the philosophical contexts in which they arise, the author offers a new perspective that will appeal to those interested in the connections between science, religion, and the unexplained.
