Thus we hope to teach mythology not as a study but as a relaxation from study to give our work the charm of a story-book yet by means of it to impart a knowledge of an important branch of education.
If no other knowledge deserves to be called useful but that which helps to enlarge our possessions or to raise our station in society then Mythology has no claim to the appellation.

For Mythology is the handmaid of literature and literature is one of the best allies of virtue and promoters of happiness.

In the world of language or in other words in the world of art and liberal education religion necessarily appears as mythology or as Bible.
