Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons and Discourses, Vol. 3 It is the custom almost universal, to put a preface before everv book, like a porch before a house. \vhat is the use the Author has never been able to see, except when, now and then, for some obvious reason it is necessary. But a preface for sake of a preface had better be omitted; especially as he has no drawer for old prefaces to be extracted and stuck to a book as a frontispiece like unto the cus tom of a writer of old. Instead of a preface, I will treat the Reader to a taste of the immortal Pascal. True eloquence makes light of eloquence, true morality makes light of morality, that is to say, the morality of the j udgment makes light of the morality of the intellect, which has no rules.
