Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Considerations on the Choice of a Field for Ministerial Labor: Annual Address Before the Society of Alumni of Union Theological Seminary, Virginia, May, 1855 Were this anniversary only an occasion for the renewal of early friendships, I would very gladly perform my part in its observance. Seven years of my life were passed in this vicinity, embracing almost the entire period of study and preparation for after life, embracing the hopeful and happy days of youth, when the dearest and the truest friendships are formed. Too many of those friendships now, alas! exist only in memory. Of the friends who were made to be friends till death, many are gone already from earth. Every scene and every object recalls some cherished recollection. Here are the dwellings - every threshold of which my feet have crossed, and often crossed; nor is there a single one without some pleasing association. Every public and every private walk - every warm and sunny spot - every cooling shade - every open space, and every deep retreat, greets me with the image of some living or of some departed friend. Had I no other duty to-day than to express the feelings which such friends and such scenes awaken, this would be enough to enlist my heart, and call forth all my efforts. how far beneath such a theme would all my efforts fall!
