Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Seventeen Discourses on Several Texts of Scripture: Addresses to Christian Assemblies, in Villages Near Cambridge, to Which Are Added Six Morning Exercises Robert Robinson was born at Swaffham, county of Norfolk, on the eighth of October, 1735. His father was a native of Scotland, and an exciseman, of whom little needs be said, except that his humble sphere in life received no dignity from his understanding, and no brightness from his virtues. Mary Wilkin, the mother of Robert Robertson, was descended from a respectable family, and to the advantages of a good education she added the charms of a beautiful person, an amiable temper, and gentleness of manners. She was the daughter of a second marriage, and, as unnatural as it may seem, the affections of her father were centered in the children of his wife by a former husband. Mary was doomed to experience from him less of the tenderness of a pa- rent, than of the austerity and unfeelingness of a severe master. He delighted to thwart her purposes; and on several occasions, through mere caprice, he rejected the overtures of worthy and respectable persons, who solicited his daughter´s hand. Disheartened by the severity of her father´s treatment, and impatient to escape from it, she imprudently resolved on marrying without his consent. This step was a prelude to untried evils. She united herself to a man in all respects unworthy of her, possessing neither the qualifications for making her happy, nor the disposition to soften and conciliate her father.
