VICAR OF GREAT COGGESHALL, ESSEX, AND LATE FELLOW OF

ORIEL COLLEGE.

" I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and
"him crucified." 1 Cor. ii. 2.

"To preach practical sermons, as they are called, that is, sermons upon
"virtues and vices, without inculcating those great scripture truths of
"redemption, grace, &c. which alone can incite and enable us to forsake
" sin, and follow after righteousness; what is it but to put together the
"wheels, and set the hands of a watch, forgetting the spring, which is to
" make them all go?" (BP. HORNE.)
