Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Youth's Companion, or an Historical Dictionary: Consisting of Articles Chiefly Selected From Natural and Civil History, Geography, Astronomy, Zoology, Botany, and Minerology; Arranged in Alphabetical Order

A multitude of things which are here related or described, as they point directly to a superintending power and all-wise contrivance, might be used as subjects for moral and religious reflections, such reflections, being obvious and 'basy, I have generally left to be made by the reader. If this, however should be thought by some serious and good minds to be a culpable omission, I might plead the example of the Sacred Historians, who briefly recorded facts involving most import ant moral principles, and left them without comment.
