OXFORD, PRINTED BY W. BAXTER, 1830. “ What I have here said, how it will be taken, I “ know not : prophets are seldom welcome, that pro“ phesy unwelcome things. But truly, at the sad ap“ prehension of the dangerous condition we now stand “ in, and in zeal for the safety and honour of my dear 6 Mother THE Church OF ENGLAND, which hath “ nourished me up to become a Christian and a Pro“ testant, my heart waxed hot within me, and the fire so “ kindled, that I could not forbear but once more to “ give vent thereunto, by laying open the second time “my inmost thoughts to the view of the world. Which “ I have done with the greatest plainness and freedom, “ that (avoiding bitterness) was possible for me to do." Preface to Bishop Sanderson's Sermons. |
