Father Gratry, Member of the French A cademy, once said :I tis astonishing how ignorant the great bulk of the public are in regard to astronomy. I have known men of education maintain that the ancient system of astronomy (which they considered to be the most philosophical, and branded me as an empiric for not agreeing with them) was the true one ;that the sun revolved round the earth, not the earth round the sun. Thus is it that this science, so simple, easy, regular, luminous, majestic and religious, so full, in all its details of the deepest interest, a model of all other sciences and a masterpiece of human intelligence has not only failed to become popular, but is even unknown to the great majority of those who have received a liberal education. It is true that the fault mainly lies in the defective manner of its teaching. These remarks are, unfortunately, borne out by experience, and therefore justify me in adding anotherS ecF ather Gratry sS ources, Part i., 136.
