Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Persecuted Family: A Narrative of the Sufferings of Religious and Pious Christians The lives and memories of our Christian ancestors, who suffered so much for the blessings of that civil and religious liberty, which the inhabitants of Britain now enjoy, ought, one would think, to be peculiarly interesting and sacred to us their posterity. Yet so it happens, that while the warrior, who has drained his own country of its wealth, and emptied it of its bravest people, to carry devastation and ruin over other nations, attracts the historic pen minutely to record his deeds, and the genius of poetry, in lofty verse, to sing his praise, - those glorious sufferers, who exposed themselves to the fury of persecution, and, like the true soldiers of Jesus Christ, patient, persevering, and zealous, fought in behalf of all that is dear to man, are wholly forgotten by many, - their characters ridiculed, and their actions misrepresented by others, - and the courage with which they suffered for our good, too little admired by all.
