1 Therefore we should affirm its life, wisdom, beauty, goodness, omnipotence, beatitude, eternity, and every other attribute which may be always and in every case better than its negation. Now, this logical choice, almost unintelligible in its theoretical statement, is practised spon- taneously by every pure and religious soul, at every instant of life.
