Descrizione

It is indeed a wonderful existence to which we are here introduced: on the one hand unexampled physical suffering, wholly unrelieved by natural remedies, wholly unsupported by natural nourish ment, and on the other supernatural visitations as unmeasured only as the pains of the poor, tortured, worn-out frame. 80 marvellous an existence may well excuse a certain amount of pre vious scepticism, and certainly it is such as to call for proportionate proof. But once that proof is forthcoming, for the scientific and unprejudiced mind there is nothing for it but to accept the facts, be the explanation what it may.
