Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Better Prospects of the Church: A Charge to the Clergy of the Archdeaconry of Lewes In the mean time a great change has taken place in our Diocese. God has called away the Bishop, whom He had given to us for a short time to be a true Father in His Church. It was a day of sorrow through the Diocese, when the tidings reacht us: many mourned as for a domestic affliction: many felt almost as though they had indeed lost a father. Of that loss I will not trust myself to speak. Admitted as I was into more frequent personal intercourse with him, I could not but learn to appreciate the graces of his character more fully, and to love them more affectionately. Rather would I speak to you of the blessing that he was to us, while he was allowed to remain amongst us, - of the blessing that he still is to us, through the rich legacy he has left us. But of this I have already spoken again and again in the Notes to the Charge. Indeed the whole Charge might almost be regarded as an unintentional panegyric on Bishop Otter. For to him, under God, it is mainly owing, that I have been enabled to talk so hopefully of the prospects of the Church in this Diocese. The new institutions, which have risen up amongst us, have been his work: and if a new spirit has been kindled in any of us, it will have proceeded in no small measure from him.
