be met in this way, we unhesitatingly assert that these claims cannot thus be exhausted. Is the duty of devotion one of so small importance as not to call for anything more than a mere fragment of time, or a dull and drowsy mind ? Our sense of propriety forbids us to entertain, for a moment, such a suppo- sition. But, not to insist further on the obvious inadequacy of the time, or the unfitness of the mind to give a suitable attention for a sufficient period, we put it to the conscience of the ...reader, if it is right that religion should thus be ignored in a general or conventional arrangement of time. Is not the dis- respect shewn to religion, and the Great Object of worship, both wrong and impious ? It is a duty to labour for the maintenance of ourselves and our families, and there is a time for labour ; the body requires nourishment, and there are periods for re- freshment ; it needs repose, and the night is given up for this purpose. In fixing these periods regard is had to their relative claims ; and no man could unduly augment any one at the expense of another without subjecting himself to the charge of selfish- ness, or misanthropy, or injustice.
