An Enquiry into the Origins of the Constellations that compose the Zodiac..
By Rev. John Barrett, D.D. (1800) 198 pages
"For it is evident that no person can understand the system here proposed, unless he knows the meaning of the sixth Sign, on which the whole depends." (Pg. 188)
"And thus also, we may be enabled to form a parallel between the Work of Creation and that of the Redemption of Man, i.e. between the Natural World and that of Grace: and derive many beautiful analogies from one to the other.
For example: the six days of Creation, consisting each of an Evening and Morning, will furnish twelve, distinct Periods, having probably some correspondence to the twelve Periods composing: the duration of all things. And as the third Day would, on such hypothesis, correspond to the sixth sign.." (Pg. 196)
"And thus Fable will appear to be only the Perversion of antecedent Truth; a fact which is confirmed by every thing we know of Nature, where Truth is always first and error comes afterwards." (Pg. 198, last words in the book)
