two first periods, the Bishop deems it almost unnecessary to enter upon the third, (901-1522.) It belongs, however, to this period to state, that it affords one Greek manuscript, containing the controverted verse; and that this MS was considerably more ancient than Griesbach or Mr. Porson supposed it to be. The character of the Montfort MS. is not at all essential to the support of the verse; but the Bishop satisfactorily shows, on the authority of Clemens Alexandrinus, and Origen, that the omission of the articles usually prefixed to Πατήρ, Υιος, and Πνευμα, is no warrant for the asseveration, that it was a bungling translation from the Latin, made for the purpose of deceiving Erasmus. The great probability is, that this manuscript was the production of the thirteenth century, which places it above the age of many manuscripts which are made to testify against the genuineness of the disputed verse. Upon the whole view of the subject, the Bishop declares that no room is left in his mind to doubt, "that we have, in the testimony of the three heavenly witnesses, the authentic words of St. John." Those who are acquainted with the Christian candour and modesty of the Bishop of St. David's, coupled with his profound learning, and long exercised critical talents, will not think it a slight argument of the personal and authoritative kind, that this eminent and amiable prelate has expressed his own conviction in these decided and unqualified terms. With us, we must confess, the value of the Bishop's individual authority and subscription outweighs a multitude of hostile names; but we think, honestly and sincerely, that he has, with his tempered armour, and his potent lance, atchieved a noble victory in this much contested field. We are among those who think, that the glorious mystery of the Trinity stands independent of this verse, or of any single verse or single chapter of the New Testament; still we can not but feel the transcendent worth of a passage that expresses the doctrine in characters as lucid as if written with a sun-beam. This little volume completes that series of successful efforts, by which the Bishop of St. David's has been permitted, by the grace of Him for whose glory he has long faithfully travailed, to throw another rampart about our Church and holy faith, for establishing the promise of its eternal duration. In saying thus much, we are only paying a just tribute to high worth; but it is not all that we owe; we are bound in gratitude to add, that in the Bishop of St. David's we have the rare instance of a man engaged in the profoundest researches, without being immersed in them; pursuing the severest inquiries, without the loss or diminution of one social or kind quality; and practically illustrating, by his example, that pure divinity, of which, under God, he is a most successful interpreter and defender.
