    'In 1679, ... his extraordinary public relation [of religious experience reveals] ... intense spiritual and psychological agony ... he was so strongly tempted to [commit suicide] that he could not sleep that night and awoke his father-in-law to share his agony. ... Ingersoll's morbid desire to destroy himself would today be called clinical depression.'
