and subversive of Religion and Morality.

and will yield a full and satisfactory
explanation of things in general -
The propounder a man of sublime genius and perfect virtue.

The propounder worthy of all honor
in spite of his share of human frailties,
as one who has added to the permanent possessions of science.
