REDWOOD;
A TALE.
BY
THE AUTHOR OF “A NEW ENGLAND TALE.”
“Whilst the infidel mocks at the superstitions of the vulgar, insults
over their credulous fears, their childish errors, their fantastic rites,
it does not occur to him to observe, that the most preposterous device by
which the weakest devotee ever believed he was securing the happiness
of a future life, is more rational than unconcern about it. Upon this
subject nothing is so absurd as indifference;—no folly so contemptible
as thoughtlessness or levity.”
—Paley.
