Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Gleanings and Groupings From a Pastor´s Portfolio Domestic life and love ever reflecting a charm on our common humanity; the sweet and impressive lessons of the revolving seasons; the light, the loveliness, and the loftiness of poetry, as emanating from the master-spirits of their respective generations; the sublime heroism of men who, in the exercise of a calm faith and burning devotion, have commanded the homage of the good, and received the approving smile of Heaven; - these are among the leading themes of contemplation in this book. Our religious literature is in its formation state. I would contribute a stone to what is yet to be a beautiful structure. One flower may I be permitted to plant in this growing garden; to deposit one gem in our home cabinet, destined yet to compare well with the rich collections of other nations. There should be more patriotism in our literature. This mighty sentiment has immense moral power to sustain us as a nation. We must contend also for a national literature that shall be ancillary, not antagonistic to the spirit of Christianity. While we admire and revere the men of genius, the heroic and the devoted spirits of other days, we should not forget our own capabilities. A noble field have we to cultivate. Let none be ashamed to work in it. The learned astronomer demonstrates the laws of the universe; the humble pilot guides his bark; the industrious mechanic plies his tools. Each fills his sphere. With us so let it be. Let us be content with "a fit audience, though few." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
