BY

RICHARD MANT, D. D.

RECTOR OF ST. BOTOLPH'S, BISHOPSGATE, AND DOMESTIC CHAPLAIN TO HIS
GRACE THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY; AND LATE FELLOW OF
ORIEL COLLEGE.

"I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and
"him crucified." 1 COR. ii. 2.

"To preach practical sermons, as they are called, that is, sermons upon
"virtues and vices, without inculcating those great scripture truths of re-
"demption, grace, &c. which alone can incite and enable us to forsake sin,
" and follow after righteousness; what is it but to put together the wheels,
"and set the hands of a watch, forgetting the spring, which is to make
"them all go?" (BP. HORNE.)
