"An account of the 'extraordinary and wild movement of religious ethusiasm' that began in seventeenth century France with the mystical ecstasy of William duSerre and spread to England where Sir Richard Bulkley and John Lacy were conspicuous converts. Schroeder discusses Lacy's book, 'Prophetical Warnings of the Eternal Spirit,' which, he believes, exhibits the inferiority-superiority conflict of the author and suggests the sexual origin of his ecstatic inspiration" - Ralph E. McCoy, "Theodore Schroeder, a Cold Enthusiast: A Bibliography"
