Note 079
The most orthodox creeds are translated by
Pocock, (Specimen, p. 274, 284 - 292,) Ockley, (Hist. of the
Saracens, vol. ii. p. lxxxii. - xcv.,) Reland, (de Religion.
Moham. l. i. p. 7 - 13,) and Chardin, (Voyages en Perse,
tom. iv. p. 4 - 28.) The great truth, that God is without
similitude, is foolishly criticized by Maracci, (Alcoran,
tom. i. part iii. p. 87 - 94,) because he made man after his
own image.]
