No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

LIM'BO,
An extramundane
region where certain classes of souls were supposed to await the
judgment.
As far from help as Limbo is from bliss. Shak. A Limbo large and broad, since called * The limbus patrum was considered as a place for the souls of good men who lived before the coming of our Savior. The limbus infantium was said to be a similar place for the souls of unbaptized infants. To these was added, in the popular belief, the limbus fatuorum, or fool's paradise, regarded as a receptacle of all vanity and nonsense. Hence: Any real or imaginary place of
restraint or confinement; a prison; as, to put a man in
limbo.
A border or margin; as, the
limbus of the cornea.
