His absurd whiskers sticking out like a cartoon-mouse,
His feet like small leaves,
Little lizard-feet,
Whitish and spread wide when he tried to struggle away,”

“There is not a greater paradox in nature,—than that so good a religion [as Christianity] should be no better recommended by its professors.”
