Reading edition

D. Mackenzie Wallace, Russia (London, Paris, and New York, N.D.), p. 302. The passage in the text is “a short extract from a description of the ‘Khlysti’ by one who was initiated into their mysteries.” As to these Russian Christs see further N. Tsakni, La Russie sectaire (Paris, N.D.), pp. 63 sqq. Amongst the means which these sectaries take to produce a state of religious exaltation are wild, whirling dances like those of the dancing Dervishes.
