Présentation de l'éditeur

This small volume needs but little preface. Suffice it to say that, having, in the course of a European tour, pursued a route not often travelled, and witnessed a ceremony yet more seldom seen, I have availed myself of some moments of leisure to give my notes their present form. This work is not written with a sectarian object. Touching so nearly on religious matters, I have carefully refrained from indulging in reflections into which neither my agenor my knowledge qualify me to enter, and have rigidly confined myself to a narration of what passed under my eyes. With regard to the remainder of the book, I at once acknowledge my indebtedness to various local works for many of the historical facts and details which I here introduce. These books being, without exception, written in the French or German languages, and many of them altogether unknown beyond the place of their publication, the materials wrhich I have drawn from them may, perhaps, interest by their novelty.
