Jesus said: "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho,
when he fell into the hands of robbers.
They stripped him of his clothes, beat him
and went away, leaving him half dead.

took him to an inn and took care of him. ...
Jesus [said] "Go and do likewise."

I (Just after publication): The novelty is absurd
and subversive of Religion and Morality.

in spite of his share of human frailties,
as one who has added to the permanent possessions of science.
