Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Lord Ill-pause

"This man, the orator of DIABOLUS, is intended to represent halting and hesitation of the soul, while it stays to listen to the tempter. Satan has many mysterious angels who are ready to second their master’s temptations, and to commend his wily overtures."[2]
