Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lesser Parables of Our Lord: And Lessons of Grace in the Langage of Nature William Arnot a was remarkable man. He was a power in his time, and made himself felt as preacher, writer, lecturer, both on this and on the other side of the Atlantic. His life contains but few incidents, but is nevertheless well worthy of being related, partly by his own graphic pen in a short Autobiography, and partly by his daughter through a selection from his private papers and correspondence. We have only to look at the portrait attached to the Autobiography and Memoir, and we know at once what manner of man he was. If the mind be written in the face, here we have a man simple yet strong-brained, earnest and true, full of humour, full too of "the milk of human kindness." These traits all gradually become apparent as we read his story from childhood onward to manhood, and at last see him placed in an honoured grave, mourned not only by that branch of the Church to which he belonged, but by all who can estimate genius when sanctified by grace and devoted to the highest aims. William Arnot was born at Scone in 1808. His father lived here for about twelve years, and here seven children were born; and here his mother died when she gave him birth. While William was still an infant, his father removed with his family to the Boat of Forgan, on the river Earn, in the parish of Forgandenny, about four miles from Perth. This he always looked upon as his native place, as he never could feel an interest in the spot where he was born, since he never knew it as a home.
