CHAPTER XIX.
[19.1] See de Rossi, Bull. di Arch. Crist. 3d year, Nos. 3, 5, 6, 12, Eg. Pomponia Græcina (Tac. Ann. xiii. 32) under Nero as already characteristic; but it is not certain that she was a Christian.
[19.2] See de Rossi, _Roma Sotteranea_ I. p. 309; and pl. xxi. No. 12 and the epigraphic collations of Leon Renier, Comptes Rend. de l'Acad. des Inscr. et B. L. 1865, p. 289, etc., and of Creuly, Rev. Arch. Jan. 1866, p. 63-64. Comp. de Rossi, Bull. 3d year, No. 10, p. 77-79.

[19.10] I allude to the essential and primitive tendencies of Christianity, not to the transformed Christianity now preached, especially that of the Jesuits.
[19.11] See history of the origin of Babism by M. de Gobineau, _Les Relig. et les Philos. dans l'Asie Centrale_ (Paris, 1865), p. 141, etc.; and by Mirza Kazem-beg in the _Journal Asiatique_ (in press). I myself have received information from two individuals at Constantinople, who were personally mixed in the affairs of Babism, which confirms the narration of these two _savants_.
[19.12] M. de Gobineau, p. 301, etc.
[19.13] Another detail which I have from original sources is as follows: Several of the sectaries, to compel them to retract, were tied to the mouths of cannon, with a lighted slow-match attached. The offer was made to them to cut off the match if they would renounce Bab. In reply, they only stretched out their hands towards the creeping spark, and besought it to hasten and consummate their happiness.

Transcriber's Note
Errors in the text that were obviously those of the printer have been corrected as noted below. A number of suspects, that have been allowed to stand, are also noted. Punctuation is sometimes missing, especially when followed by an endnote reference, and has been added or corrected without further notice here. Inconsistencies of punctuation in the endnotes have also been corrected.
On p. 25, the division of Acts into two books is mistranslated as comprising twelve and seven (_sept_) chapters respectively. There are sixteen (_seize_) chapters devoted to Paul's travels in II Acts.
A quotation from an earlier work of the author, beginning on p. 46, with "I protest once for all...", ends on the following page with the end of the paragraph ending with "in opposing war to war." However, the closing quotation mark is missing. It has been added here, after confirming the extent of the quote in the cited source.
On pp. 222 and 226, the seraglio of "Abennérig" (in the French original) is referred to variously as "Aberverig" and "Abenverig". Neither are correct but are retained.
This original French text used copious footnotes, which were gathered by the translator into a "Notes" section at the end of the text, and numbered sequentially within each chapter. In doing so, numerous errors were introduced, leaving many references pointed to the wrong or missing notes. These errors, to the best of our knowledge, have been corrected, based on a contemporary French edition. Where necessary, the references have been re-numbered, sequentially.
The chapter number is included in the note number, e.g. [1.10]. Thus, [I.54] is the 54th note to the Introduction.
Where the anchor has been restored or corrected, curly braces were used, as {1.6}. Any text supplied for the three missing notes themselves is also delimited by braces.
The reference to note 4.25 is missing, though it appears in the Notes. On p. 97, the following sentence was incompletely translated:
"The Jews of Egypt and Hellenists of Palestine, indeed, practised a more tolerant system, and habitually perused the Greek translations of the Bible."
The complete sentence from the original should have been:
"The Jews of Egypt and Hellenists of Palestine, indeed, practised a more tolerant system; {they employed Greek in prayer}{4.25}, and habitually perused the Greek translations of the Bible."
Rather than omit the reference to 4.25 along with the missing phrase, it has been placed at the end of the sentence as printed.
The following references were simply misprinted, and have been corrected: 10.6 -> 10.9 ; 12.83 -> 12.33; 15.6 -> 15.9.
In the Notes section, note 7.13 was misprinted as "31" and has been corrected.
Reference 5.65 was used twice, resulting in the remaining 36 notes of
