The Congregationalism of the last three hundred years, as seen in its literature : with special reference to certain recondite, neglected, or disputed passagesIn twelve lectures, delivered on the Southworth foundation in the Theological Seminary at Andover, Mass., 1876-1879With a bibliographical appendix . aureae, quibus manna reconditur atque petras mel-lifluae, imo potius favimellis; ubera uberrima lactis vitas, promptuaria semper plena. Voslignum vita, atque quadripartitus fluvius paradisi, quo mens humana pascitur et aridus intellectus imbuitur et rigatur et optima quaeque scripturae libris adaptare poterimus, si loqui libeat figurate. Richardus de Buri, Philobiblon (repr. 1861), S0-J4. Wondrous, indeed, is the virtue of a true book. Not like a dead city of stones, yearlycrumbling, yearly needing repair; more like a Tilled Field, but then a Spiritual Field;like a Spiritual Tree, let me rather say, it stands from y^ar to year, and from age to age(we have books that already number some hundred and fifty human ages); and yearlycomes its new produce of leaves—Commentaries, Deductions, Philosophies, Political Sys-tems ; or were it only Sermons, Pamphlets, Journalistic Essays — every one of which isTalismanic and Thaumaturgic, for it can persuade men.
