This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1897 edition. Excerpt: ...mildness to command. Do not crush their tender feelings; Win their confidence, their trust; Treat them kindly, and be always Merciful as well as just; Pastors, don't forget the children; They are looking up to you; By a word of admonition, There is much that you can do.

Of those whose dust I hallow yet, Of those too sacred to forget. CONFIDENCE. The trust another hath reposed in thee Is sacred as thy life, whate'er it be; And in the promise which thy lips have given, If thou shalt fail, thou wilt be judged of Heaven.
