Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Choice Works of Isaac Watts, D. D In preparing a series of volumes to be styled the Standard Library Of Sacred Classics, containing, in a form adapted for popular use, the best works of eminent divines, with memoirs of their lives, notices of their writings, and estimates of their genius, we believe that we render an acceptable service to the Christian public. For what person, whose heart glows with love and gratitude to the Author of the Christian revelation, does not feel a deep interest in the lives and writings of such venerated divines as Taylor, Howe, Baxter, Owen, Watts, Doddridge, Fuller, Hall, Chalmers, Edwards, Dwight, and others of kindred spirit? Their praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches; and their lofty genius and fervent piety will excite the admiration of the Christian world in all future ages. It is certainly delightful, as well as profitable, for the Christian in his pilgrimage, frequently to review the lives and study the practical and devotional works of these zealous ambassadors of Christ, who through faith and patience are now inheriting the promises. In addition to the biographical sketches, our selection will comprise many valuable treatises not readily accessible. The principal object, in the present series, will be the collection of such matter only as shall be highly conducive to the mental, moral, and religious improvement and elevation of readers of all evangelical denominations. This volume, which is the first in the series, contains the life and choice works of Isaac Watts. In the biographical memoir, we have endeavored to present, in a clear, succinct, and chronological order, the leading incidents in his long and useful life. Solicitous to render the memoir as interesting as possible to the Christian reader, we have carefully consulted the best authorities on the subject, such as Milner´s Life, Times, and Correspondence of Watts; the Memoirs of Watts by Gibbons, Burder, Johnson, and Southey; and Wilmott´s Lives of the English Sacred Poets.
