Abstract

What we find in pagan religions touching a future life for man, appears there in the two aspects of a speculation, and a faith. The faith may be regarded as an operation of that active principle in man's soul which will not permit him to do otherwise than anticipate and expect a life hereafter; the speculation, as those attempts to justify such expectation, or to master and explain the mystery implied, which we find alike in pagan religion and in pagan philosophy.
