Book excerpt: Excerpt from Voltaire's History of Charles XII, King of Sweden French critic of another school, who says, Eng land at this time was worked by a spirit of dog matic irreligion which based itself on a false erudition, a bold criticism and an insidious meta physic. It was the time of Woolston, of Toland, of Tindal, of Chubb, of Collins, of Bolingbroke.
