But this is not the extent of his Accusation. He appeals to facts, which, however Vv-e may lament, we cannot deny. It is the fate of christianit}-, like its great Master, to be most deeply Avounded in the house of its friends: iuid mistaken notions of its true principles and cha- racter, have done it more injury than all the malignant attacks of infidelity. The enemy of our faith points with exaltation to some sincere, but weak and mis- guided disciple of Christ.

He mingles his meat with tears, and his drink with weeping. No smile brightens his countenance. He goes mourning all his days; and that religion, which you press on my acceptance, as the balm of life, the rich cordial of a wounded heart, bows do^vn his manhood to the earth, and if life last so long, will bring his gray hairs with sorrow to the grave.
