Excerpt from The Christian Poet, or Selections in Verse, on Sacred Subjects These abilities are the inspired gift of God, rarely bestowed; and are of power to inbreed and cherish in a great people the seeds of virtue and public civil ity; to allay the perturbations of the mind, and set the afl'ections in right tune; to celebrate in glorious and lofty hymns the throne and equipage of God's al mightiness, and what he works, and what he suffers to be wrought with high providence in his church; to sing victorious agonies of martyrs and saints, the deeds and triumphs of just and pious nations, doing valiantly through faith against the enemies of Christ; to deplore the general relapses of kingdomsand states from justice and God's true worship. Lastly, whatsoever in reli gion is holy and sublime, in virtue amiable 01: grave, whatsoever hath passion or admiration in all the changes of that which is called fortune from without, or the wily subtleties and refluxes of man's thoughts from within; all these things, with a solid and treat able smoothness, to paint out and describez - Teach ing over the whole book of sanctity and virtue, through all the instances of example, with such delight to those especially of soft and delicious temper, who willnot so much as look upon truth herself, unless they see her elegantly dressed, - that, whereas the paths of honesty and good life appear now rugged and difficult, though they be indeed easy and pleasant, they will then appear to all men easy and pleasant, though they were rugged and difficult indeed.

Excerpt from Sacred Poetry Mom of the following poems, as well as others which I have written but not here reprinted, have been long before the public, and many of them extensively circulated in selections of sacred poetry, both in this country and in America, but in a collected form they have for years been out of print. Believing that it is important for a writer to learn to blot, I have shortened some of them from what they were in the former editions, corrected others, and some which have been before printed I have altogether suppressed.
