Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The United States of America Compared With Some European Countries, Particularly England: In a Discourse Delivered in Trinity Church, and in St. Paul´s and St. John´s Chapels, in the City of New-York, October, 1825 At your hospitable board I often met this honoured circle; and in your society, and that of your interesting family and friends, I spent some of the most delightful hours that solaced my absence from my country, my diocese, my congregations, and my home. But, my dear Sir, it is in your public character that I most admire, honour, and venerate you. As the prudent and wise, and uniform friend of the Church, divinely constituted in her sacraments, ministry, and worship, to be the guardian of the faith once delivered to the Saints, you devote your time, your talents, and your fortune, to her interests and advancement; and in this exalted work of Christian benevolence, you are associated with the highest dignitaries of the Church of England, and with some of the nobles of that land. But 1 esteem it a still more enviable distinction, that in primitive principles, in unaffected piety, in every amiable virtue of the Christian, the name of Watson is not unworthy of being ranked with those of Nelson, of Wogan, of Waldo, and of Stevens. That your life, so valuable to the large circle of your friends, and to that Church to which it is devoted, may to a distant period be prolonged in health, in usefulness, and in happiness, is the fervent prayer of, My dear Sir, Your very faithful, affectionate, And obliged friend, J.
