Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Centennial Commemoration of the Death of George Whitefield, in the Old South Church, Newburyport, Mass: Sept; 30, 1870 There are some movements which may make a wild foam on the surface of the stream, and leave it the same. There are others which turn a current, and it flows on in a new channel over half a continent. There are sounds which stun the ear for a moment and then are silent. There are others which when once uttered echo on forever. The eloquent voice which more than a century ago spoke words of love and power to quivering thousands, is heard still in its effects, and by them, he that uttered it, "being dead yet speaketh." On Sabbath morning, June 20, 1736, there knelt before the bishop of Gloucester, in the old cathedral town of Gloucester, Gloucestershire, England, to be ordained with others to the Christian ministry, according to the forms of the Church of England, a young Oxford student of thoughtful mien and remarkably prepossessing appearance. He was somewhat above the middle stature, well-proportioned, of a slender form, fair complexion, regular features, small, lively dark blue eyes, in one of which - the effect of measles - was observable a slight squint, not disfiguring, but rather adding to the general expressiveness of his face - and distinguished for the peculiar sweetness of his countenance and the native grace of his manners.
