BOOK VI.
R E L IG IO N .
P h e religion of the Indian islanders, which is the
subject of the present book, will be treated of in
four distinct chapters. The first will contain an
account of the ancient religion of the people ; the
second of their modern Hinduism; the third of
the Mahomedan religion ; and the fourth of the
progress and character of Christianity among these
islanders. Java is, to my knowledge, the only
country of the Archipelago that affords materials
for the discussion of the first subject 5 and, there,
fore, my references are constantly made to that
country; and Bali affords, so exclusively, the materials
of the second, that the chapter on this topic
is expressly denominated an account of the religion
of Bali,
