Godwin has rendered an essential service to moral science, by attempting (in vain) to pass the Arctic Circle and Frozen Regions, where the understanding is no longer warmed by the affections, nor fanned by the breeze of fancy ! This is the effect of all bold, original, and power- ful thinking, that it either discovers the truth, or detects where error lies ; and the only crime with which Mr. Godwin can be charged as 189 THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE a political and moral reasoner is, that he has displa...yed a more ardent spirit, and a more independent activity or thought than others, in establishing the fallacy (it fallacy it be) of an old popular prejudice that the Just and True lucre one, by ' championing it to the Outrance, ' and in the final result placing the Gothic structure of human virtue on an humbler, but a wider and safer foundation than it had hitherto occupied in the volumes and systems of the learned. Mr. Godwin is an inventor in the regions of romance, as well as a skilful and hardy explorer of those of moral truth.
