Here follow the two sentences, which, as was stated in the Advertisement to this Edition, have forfeited their place in the text : 1.

Supra, p. 406 (p. 421, 1st Ed.), after “ his place could nowhere be found,” the text proceeded. “Even the Papal Apostasy, which seems at first sight an: exception to this rule, has lasted but the same proportion of the whole duration of Christianity, which Arianism occupied in its day; that is, if we date it, as in fairness we ought, from the fatal Council of Trent.
