Such is the marvel of Divine Retribution whereof we are witnesses. The nearer we draw to the close of the long career of the papacy, the farther we go, the higher we climb and the more widely we gaze around, the journey grows more wonderful, the prospect spreads out fairer and more magnificent. The Papal Drama forms but some scenes or at most an act, as its catastrophe will furnish but an incident of that Divine Drama of History the course whereof has been so wonderful and the consummation whereof will be so blessed and glorious. That catastrophe will bring gladness to faithful souls mainly because it will hasten that consummation. The fall of an evil power yields a delight fitly felt and divinely inspired, but erelong to be swallowed up in nobler and diviner joy as the Heavenly King draws near to set up His universal and everlasting monarchy. All these mighty events and terrible revolutions will issue in the full vindication of His righteousness and the full manifestation of His glory. Fallen, fallen is Babylon the Great,' is a sacred and gladsome strain wherein saints and angels may meetly join; yet it forms but a faint and humble prelude to strains still more heavenly, and will be lost in the fuller triumph and supreme harmony of that divinest song, ‘Hallelujah, for the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth. The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign for ever and ever.' LONDON PRINTED BY SPOTTISWOODE AND со. NEW-STREET SQUARE LONDON: January 1867.
