Excerpt from History of Christianity: Comprising All That Relates to the Progress of the Christian Religion in "the History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire," and a Vindication of Some Passages in the 15th and 16th Chapters Bohu's edition Of Gibbon is edited by a distinguished English Churchman whose name, however, does not appear. This editor laments that no Christian reader of Gibbon's florid page will be able or will desire to sup press a deep feeling of sorrow that the mind which could plan and compose the most valuable. History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire could find no rest in the truths of Christianity and he quotes with approbation the criticism of Porson that Gibbon often makes, where he cannot readily find, an occasion to insult our religion, which he hates so cordially, that he might seem to revenge some personal injury.
