Abstract
In the darkness before the dawn of Christianity, Marcus Tullius Cicero, the pagan philosopher and moralist, lived. He was of that last generation~ floundering in a world devoid of all religion, blank as to any ideas of a God. Religion only meant gods as things to swear by, or things to be amused by, or things from which, if times were bad, some doubtful assistance might perchance come. It was a century in which the old religions had lost their hold, and Christianity had not yet emerged.
