Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Leader Fallen: A Sermon Preached in the Rutgers-Street Church, New-York, on Sabbath Morning, April 11th, 1841 My Respected Friends; In consenting to your request for a copy of the annexed discourse, I felt it to be due to you to gratify the desire which, in so kind a manner, you expressed for yourselves, and have assured me is the desire of my people, to possess it in a printed form. I was also willing to offer it as an humble contribution to the very solemn occasion, which I doubted not would be improved and honoured by all my brethren. The delay in sending you the manuscript has been caused by the necessity of writing it out entirely from the few brief and hastily-prepared notes from which it was first preached. To do this, I have been obliged to confine myself to such intervals as were allowed by many other engagements. I trust that I have succeeded in reproducing the substance of what was spoken, and that you will be able to recognise, what I have endeavoured to preserve as nearly as possible, the very language. But, notwithstanding this endeavour, I have not refrained from expanding some of the thoughts which were but rapidly touched in preaching. The result has been to make the whole somewhat longer than I ventured to make it in the pulpit, even on such a special occasion. The reader, however, will have this compensating advantage, that if, as a hearer, he were too well bred to leave the preacher in the midst of his discourse, he can lay down the author at pleasure.
