Its power is augmented by reading books of fiction, and its evil influence in disposing the mind to superstition and credulity might be guarded against by an avowal of its fictitious nature by those authors who use it to personify all modes of existence.

There are three principal causes by which the human mind is advanced towards a state of per- fection ; literature, or the diffusion of knowledge through the medium of discussion, written or... oral ; education, or a system for the early impres- sion of right principles upon the hitherto unpreju- diced mind ; and political justice, or the adoption of any principle of morality and truth into the practice of a community.
Literature has reconciled the whole thinking world respecting the great principles of the sys- tem of the universe, and extirpated on this sub- ject the dreams of romance and the dogmas of superstition. Literature has unfolded the nature of the human mind, and Locke and others have established certain maxims respecting man, as Newton has done respecting matter, that are gen- erally admitted as unquestionable.
