"In 'Aristée' Hemsterhuis, who originally believed in a personal God, is converted to a clear pantheism. God's omnipresence is the basis of man's relation with him, and it is mainly thanks to the moral principle, as the "moral organ" is called in later years, that man is able to come nearer to God." Encycl. of Phil. III, p. 474. - First edition. Copy on large paper (as all copies are), printed for private circulation only. Stoddard 9 ("Note that only KB copies 1 & 2 preserve the initial blank leaf.").€ 240
