Excerpt from Short Texts in Faiths and Philosophies: Or Some Sentiments of the Good and Wise; Arranged Chronologically to Show the Movements of Thoughts Through the Ages The great advance of research and discoveries in the science of Comparative Religion and Archćology, makes it advisable to consider how we actually stand in this respect at the close of the XIXth century. We here therefore give a brief chronological epitome of much ancient thought, culled from well-recognised sources: from writings on rocks and stones, mummy cases and cloths; from temple walls, buried tablets, lats or stelć, papyri, bibles and sacred records; and, for clearness and brevity, will throw together the more prominent teachings in the form of free but carefully-translated texts, and in modern language - summarized so as to clearly bring out the leading points of each teacher, sect or school. This ought to enable us to trace the veritable footprints of each and all, as they wandered along - often in doubt and darkness - towards a truer conception of the universe, the unknown and unfathomable future. It will be a passage adown the Rivers of Life or progress, which ought to show ethnographically, as well as sectionally, the part which each race and nation has borne in the struggle upwards to light and learning; as well as those obstructing influences which have retarded the march of truth by superstitions, self-interests, heredity, or other circumstances peculiar to race, time and climate.
