< Supersensous Perception (continued from page 1-134) >
And yet how many absurdities are still believed in the world! In my fourteenth year I read the history of the Siege of Rochelle, by the Italian historian Benzoni, in which he states naively that “God was at length tired of the resistance of the Huguenots shut up in the place, and one fine morning he ordered the Atlantic to retire two miles further out, and to remain out two hours longer than usual, in order that the soldiers of his Catholic Majesty might enter the city from the sea-side, and put an end to those stiff-necked heretics."
