beauty and excellence of the moral code which Christianity has revealed to mankind, and on that account I have been most anxious to comprehend its more abstruse doctrines. I am quite certain that Lord Byron was very sincere in his inquiries into the merits of Christianity. He entertained the highest respect for the character of Dr. K., and was engaged to attend to him from a complete conviction of his real goodness and sincerity,—— indeed, he told me, that had he not entertained that conviction, he would not have listened to Dr. K. a second time. No man was ever better calculated to inculcate the excellent precepts of Christianity with better success, for his whole character seemed to have been imbued with its best principles: he was so gentle, so good, so patient, and so persevering to secure the happiness of others, that it was impossible not to feel pleased and grateful for his efforts; and my heart must be much more insensible than it is at present, not to recollect them with becoming gratitude. Yet the motives for inquiry are subject to the misinterpretation of illiberal and narrow-minded individuals."-1830.

"This is a new application of the principles on which Paley formed his Horæ Pauline; and the execution is in a high degree meritorious. The ingenuity of many of Mr. Blunt's sections might stand a comparison with anything in his predecessor's masterpiece; and the clearness and liveliness of his language are such that we cannot too earnestly recommend the work to those Parents who feel the want of Books calculated to interest as well as instruct young readers.”—Quar, Rev.

"It has often occurred to me as something wonderful, that among the vast variety of books which are to be met with, on the important subject of Religion, there should still be wanted a manual for the information and direction of the Minister in his daily intercourse with sick persons and other members of his flock.

"Having been in the habit, then, for several years, of remarking this defect of instruction with regard to practical divinity, and the whole business of a Parish Priest, and having myself, meanwhile, been thrown perpetually into the most interesting and awful scenes with my own Parishioners, I determined at length to take up my pen, and to commit to paper whatever, having passed under my personal observation, might be most likely to be useful to others of the same profession.

"I had no thought originally of doing more than assist my younger brethren of the clerical order, who might be appointed to the management of large parishes, without time or opportunities to prepare themselves in an adequate manner for so difficult and momentous an undertaking; but, in proceeding with my work, I began to flatter myself with the notion, that it may possibly both amuse and instruct every description of readers.-Many persons may be tempted, upon the recommendation of the Clergy, to peruse the book; and may find unexpectedly their fancy pleased, their knowledge increased, and their hoarts touched and improved."-Preface.
