Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Discourse on the Cambridge Church-Gathering in 1636: Delivered in the First Church, on Sunday, February 22, 1846 There were signs of preparation for some special solemnity. The signal for a public gathering was heard; and, as the inhabitants issued from their dwellings and passed with sedate step through the streets, others of less familiar countenance, who had spent the Sabbath with them that they might be here in season, or who had just arrived from the neighbourhood, were seen mingling with them as they went. Gathering from all quarters came the fathers of the infant church and commonwealth of Massachusetts, to sanction by their presence the solemn act which was about to be performed in the first rude temple, which had been erected a few years before a little way from the spot on which we are now assembled to the worship of the one living and true God. From Boston, from Charlestown, from Winnisimet, from Roxbury, from Dorchester, from Watertown, from Medford, from Concord, and the towns which were within convenient travelling distance, the "messengers" of the invited churches, and others drawn hither by curiosity and religious interest, were seen wending their way, as they then best could, over new rough roads, or across the open fields and over the ice-bridged rivers and streams, to the humble Puritan sanctuary.
