Digitized by Google THEORY OF PRAYER 197 If we attempt to dive deeper into the springs of religious action peculiar to the period, and to answer the question, what was really the motivum of a worship, so active, often toilsome, and always claiming so large a proportion of time, as was then offered to the gods, it cannot but strike us most convincingly that the higher powers of the soul, and the moral req...uirements of man, had little or no share therein. A few words suffice to indicate the void. There was wanting there the conviction of divine holiness, and the need of human sanctification. The state of his soul was never laid open to the deity in prayer. The thoughts of man, or the direction of his will, never approximated to the deity, nor were troubled thereupon about them ; many even imagined that the gods knew nothing of them. Nay, the very notion of a god really omniscient had something in it frightful to many.
