Description

Description from Open Library

As, in the triumph of Christianity, the old religion lingered latest in the country, and died out at last as but paganism-the religion of the villagers, before the advance of the Christian Church; so, in an earlier century, it was in places remote from town-life that the older and purer forms of paganism itself had survived the longest.
