When this work first appeared, three-and-twenty years ago, it became at once an object of unmerited abuse, and of equally unmerited praise. Small divines mistaking it for an insidious attempt to overthrow opinions " as by law established," spurted at it with pens dipped in the milk of the Gospel; whilst, under the very same hallucination, " Friends of Light " lauded it to the skies-either party equally ignorant both of the subject, and of the purpose of my labours. One noted Zoihis (whose recollections of Homer would seem to be of the same deeplymarked nature as Ensign Blifil's) is disgusted at my citing " Aidoneus " as a title of the God of the Shades; another is astonished at my ignorance in calling Bardanes a Persian, whereas he was a native of Pontus; not understanding that my argument was equally valid in spite of the mistake-Pontus being originally a province of the empire of Darius, and what is more to the purpose, the actual focus whence Mithraicism diffused itself over the Eoman world.
