FROM CALVARY TO OLIVET. BEING A SEQUEL TO 'VOICES FROM CALVARY? A COURSE OF HOMILIES. BY CHARLES STANFORD, D.D., AUTHOR OF 'SYMBOLS OF CHRIST, 'THE ALTERNATIVES OF FAITH AND UNBELIEF, ETC. London: THE RELIGIOUS TRACT SOCIETY, 56, PATERNOSTER Row; 65, ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD; PREFACE. MANY old friends, knowing that I am so far blind as not to be able to use a pen, wonder how my work for the press is done. Let me say that I always use Remington's type-writer. According to an Eastern apologue, when Allah deprived a certain man of his eyes, he afterwards gave to him 'eyes in his fingers.' Something like this has been the compensating mercy to me. By this help, also by help from note-books that have been kept up all my life; from heightened memory; from the fact that in this case the substance of the homilies had already been given in the course of my ministry; also, I would gratefully own, from having of late a little more light, I have, though with much difficulty, got through my task. |
