| - | Scatalogic or Stercoraceous Rites and Practices, however repellent it may be under some of its aspects, is none the less deserving of the profoundest consideration, if for no other reason than that from the former universal dissemination of such aberrations of the intellect, as well as of the religious impulses of the human race, and their present curtailment or restriction, the progress of humanity upward and onward may best be measured. | + | '''Michael Ettmüller''' (May 26, 1644 – March 9, 1683), [[Germany|German]] [[physician]], was born at [[Leipzig]]. |
