to thefe duties ; and every thing, which ought to have called, removed him from them. To his fupreme Ma- jefty he owed his adoration a;nd his homage ; to his pater- nal goodnefs his love ; to his infinite wifdom, the facrifice of his reafon and of his lights. Thefe duties, engraven on his heart, and born with him, were ftill alfo inceflantly proclaimed to him by alf creatures ; he could neither liuer> to hirofelf, nor to all things around him, without finding them ; neverthelefs, he forgets, he... effaces them from his heart. He no longer faw in the work, that honour and that worfhip which were due to the fovereign Architeft ; in the- blefiings with which he loaded him, that love which he owed to his benefaftor; in the obfcurity fpread through even natural caufes, that impoflibihty, much lefs, of fa- thoming the fecrecies o\ God, and that miftruft, in which he ought to live, of his own lights. Idolatry, therefore, rendered to the creature that worfhip which the Creator had relerved for himfelf alone : the fynagogue honoured him from the lips, and that love, which it owed to him^ was confined to external homages totally unworthy of him ; philofophy loft itfelf in its own ideas, meafurcd the lights of God by thofe of men, and vainly believed that reafon, which knew not itfelf, was able to know all truth : three fores, fpread over the face of the whole earth.
