Excerpt from The Christian Remembrancer, Vol. 13: A Quarterly Review
'Pascal's Thoughts,' says Professor Vinet, of Lausanne, 'can no longer be found in our literature.' The work has suffered such eclipse as might befal a star which, after a long period of glory, should suddenly be lost from the heavens; or, more properly, it is like one of those Crustacea which retire for a time, to develop a new shell more commensurate with the augmenting bulk of the animal. In the pages of Cousin and Fougère the work comes out anew, in the genuine form in which it was penned by the great Geometer of the seventeenth century, at once emancipated from the caprice of the Duke de Roannez, and the fears of Port-Royal, from the piety of Arnauld, and the profaneness of Condorcet.
Were not the work so speedily restored to us. we might grudge the antiquarian diligence which had robbed us of one of our most valued classics. So soon as M. Cousin had published his' Memoir' respecting the original manuscripts, when he had noticed the daring way in which they had been tampered with, and the necessity of a new edition, it was essential that the pious diligence of M. Fougère should restore our ancient associate.
At the first report of this literary adventure, we were ready to exclaim with the Roman poet -
'Pol me occidistis, amici,
Non servastis, ait: cui sic extorta voluptas,
Et demptu Bper vim mentis gratissimus error.'
But we must do M. Fougère the justice to say that he has fairly accomplished the task which his title-page indicates him to have undertaken. M. Cousin, indeed, seems to suppose that he could have done the work himself much better.

The author draws upon a wealth of historical documents to paint a vivid picture of the secret society's evolution, revealing its rituals, doctrines, and impact on various aspects of British culture. Delving into the historical context of Freemasonry, the author traces its roots back to the medieval era, where it emerged from guilds of stonemasons.
