Excerpt from Lectures on the Pastoral Office: Delivered to the Students of the Theological Seminary at Alexandria, Va Had the undersigned any reputation as an author to sustain, or were he in pursuit of one, he certainly would not publish the following Lectures. Of the sincerity of this declaration, the reader will not doubt, when he shall perceive how large a portion of the work, not merely as to sentiments, but also language, is borrowed from others. Although there is also much which is the result of the author's own reflections and experience; yet that is of so plain and practical a character, and expressed in such unadorned language, that no one will impute to him the folly of expecting to acquire fame by it. Happily, however, for the cause of true piety, God has so ordained it, that one may be useful to others, without securing for himself any reputation for talents or learning. Diligence in using the labors of others, and in exerting one's own powers, however moderate, may effect something which, with God's blessing, may be useful. Such is the only merit claimed and hope cherished, for the following lectures. They have now been delivered for a number of years to the graduating class of the Theological Seminary of Virginia, during which time the wish has often been expressed by partial friends that they might one day be published. Nothing was further from the thoughts of the lecturer when they were first prepared. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
