St. Lucia, May, 1851.
_Passage in Coleridge's Table Talk._--In _Specimens of Coleridge's Table
Talk_ (p. 165., Murray, 1851) appears the following:--
"So little did the early bishops and preachers think their
Christian faith wrapped up in, and solely to be learned from, the
New Testament, that I remember a letter from ----[1] to a friend
of his, a bishop in the East, in which he most evidently speaks of
the _Christian_ scriptures as of works of which the bishop knew
little or nothing."
[Footnote 1: "I have lost the name which Mr. Coleridge
mentioned."--_Editor's Note._]
My object is to know how this blank is to be filled up--probably by the
name of some well-known father of the Church.
