548 Rivers of Life, or Faiths of Man in all Lands. founder our error. These objects are the keys that can alone unlock the Eleusinian casket, therefore we must study faiths practically, and go, see, and handle the actual symbols called I’s, A’s, and O’s, &c., and so learn from what they symbolise, the foundations on which ancient peoples built up the mighty structures we call Faiths. It is all very well to be presented with our Christ as a babe in a cave or manger, but we want to become acquainted with types in general—Suns and Caves as well as this Anointed One, the Dove. aud the Cloud, or Elohe, even before these three appeared over the waters of Jordan; and many existing faiths help us to interpret such forms and ideas. Sir John Lubbock, in his long chapter on Religion, in the Origin of Civilisation, devotes but a few words to the worship of Ancestors, calling it an Idolatry which survived the stage of Totemism (p. 232), and belonging to living man-worship, but it is very transient even when the family niche is crowded with little rude symbols of those who once sat at the sacred hearth. Though the widow and immediate offspring never forget these before or during meals, “yet in ordinary cases this semi-worship only lasts a few years;” 1 for no real gods, temples, bibles, or priests are here, and the living circle who knew the dead is ever being reduced, and time removing the heritage further from view into the dim past. The case is a little different when the dead have been great and wonderful men who have not only formed a tribe into a city, and a city into a nation, but transformed these into an empire; how few, however, are such, and even then how transitory is the worship of a Romulus. 1 Erman, quoted by Lubbock, O. of Civil., p. 230.
