Excerpt from Geometry and Faith: A Supplement to the Ninth Bridgewater Treatise
"The present work lays no claim to originality." A humble gleaner in the fields of Mathesis and Theology, I offer only a few of the common fruits, well known to those who have more thoroughly surveyed the boundaries of these two domains. And I have ventured to connect them with the name of the "Bridgewater Treatises," not because I consider myself worthy to appear in company with their writers, but simply that I may thus the more earnestly express my admiration for the treatise of Babbage.
Preface To The Second Edition.
I have rewritten the greater part of this work, and altered so much the expression and illustration of my thought, that I might have given it a new title, but for the affection which twenty-five years' familiarity has bred for the old one.
