For his talents, his learning, and his piety, he was equally eminent. His “Memoirs” have been considered, by com petent judges, for more than a century, as one of the best specimens of religious biography extant. As an exhibition of Christian experience, simple, unaffected, scriptural, and richly instructive, we know not that we could mention a work, of the same extent, more adapted to be useful, and more worthy of patronage. The present edition has been carefully revised, and divested of a few obsolete words and phrases, while the utmost care has been taken not only to preserve every idea of the author, but to exhibit it faithfully in his own manner. The work is worthy of a place in every family; and we hope the enterprising publishers will have no reason to regret their undertaking.
