Meditations And Discourses On The Sublime Truths And Important Duties Of Christianity Etc Edited By Charles Butler

Excerpt from Meditations and Discourses on the Sublime Truths and Important Duties of Christianity As the original edition, in three volumes, presented the Discourses in an irregular and disjointed order - and as sufficient care had not been paid to that accuracy of style, and correctness of punctuation, which are essential to perspicuity - particularly in discussing theological and moral subjects - the labors and criticisms of the late learned and Reverend Dr. Lanigan, in this respect, have been attended to-due order has been followed, and past defects carefully amended. It is confidently expected, work will be most extensively circulated, and that no public or private library will be without it.
