Excerpt from On Certain Methods of the Rambler and the Home and Foreign Review: A Second Letter to the Clergy of the Diocese of Birmingham Man, then, qua animal, was to follow the progressive law of the animal creation; but qua more than animal, as rational being, as a being made for the supernatural, he was not less gradually to discover in the course of generations the existence and the destiny of his soul.

He had the supernatural gift, to shew him what his nature was intended for; then he was allowed to lapse into the mere animal condition, in order that it might redound to the glory of God of such stones to raise up suc cessors to the fallen cherubim.
