Excerpt from The Provincial Letters of Pascal
A book written by the notorious literary free-lance Ga rasse, in which the paradoxes and the laxity of his colleagues were carried to a ridiculous extreme, called forth from the Abbe de saint-cyran an annihilating criticism'. The Society, although somewhat ashamed of their champion, could not disavow principles which were to be found under the approbation of its generals, and felt that saint-cyran's strokes passed over the prostrate Garasse into their own stronghold. This was the first skirmish in the great war in which Pascal was to take so important a part.
