Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Excellent Woman: As Described in the Book of Proverbs We hail it as one of the signs of good, that the female sex have, in these latter years, been gradually coming up to the position of dignity and influence which Providence has evidently designed for them. If we compare woman as she was with woman as she is, or if we view her as she is now under Pagan and under Christian influences, we cannot resist the conviction that Christianity is the wonder-working agent that has produced the change in both her character and her condition. And we have a right to expect that this change will become yet more deep and universal. We anticipate the time when Christianity will dispense to her still brighter glories; when her intellect will act more vigorously, and her heart be lifted up in purer and nobler aspirations; when she will not only better understand, but more faithfully fulfil, her allotted mission; - in short, when her influence shall be felt everywhere, welcomed everywhere, pure as the breath of the morning, and merciful, yet powerful, as the ministry of angels.
