I then go on through a couple of pages to discuss the value of the evidence of the synoptics on critical and historical grounds. Mr. Gladstone cites the essay from which these passages are taken, whence I suppose he has read it; though it may be that he shares the impatience of Cardinal Manning where my writings are concerned. Such impatience will account for, though it will not excuse, his sixth proposition.
[117] The wicked, before being annihilated, returned to the world to disturb men; they entered into the body of unclean animals, "often that of a pig, as on the Sarcophagus of Seti I. in the Soane Museum."—Lenormant, Chaldean Magic, p. 88, Editorial Note.

"This very complete revelation of the character and work of
a man who must be regarded as one of the forces which gave
character to the nineteenth century will be welcomed by a
far wider circle of readers than that which is interested in
Huxley's strictly scientific researches.... These two richly
interesting volumes are sure to be widely read."—London
Times.
"It 'goes without saying' what precious freight was carried
by Huxley's letters.... These two delightful
volumes."—London Chronicle.
"Huxley's life was so full, so active, so many-sided, in
touch with such a number of interesting people, that this
work appeals to all sorts and conditions of men.... An
admirably written biography."—London Standard.
"His letters are a self-revelation of the man, his work, his
ambitions, his trials, his views of religion, his
philosophy, his public activity and domestic happiness....
Whoso reads these volumes will feel that he knows better a
man worth knowing, and the number who will read them will be
great."—London Telegraph.
"Huxley's career makes a wonderful story."—London Mail.
"Mr. Leonard Huxley has given the world many extremely
valuable and interesting letters, all characteristic, and he
has connected them by a well-written consecutive narrative
which is sufficient to weave them together."—London News.
