I am con religion. Condemned to the Galleys for the sake of his fident they will commend themselves to the common Christian heart, irrespective of sect. The Episcopal Church, of which she is a member, has produced in this country notwithstanding such names as Croswell, Doane, and Coxe-no devotional poems which can be compared with hers for simple beauty, delicacy, and faithfulness to Christian experience.

Open the book where you will, and it is almost impossible to lay it down again."-London Reader. "A more valuable contribution to the records of genuine martyrology could hardly be found. The style of the narrative in its graphic simplicity reminds us of Defoe; but the wellauthenticated facts which it relates are more interesting than fiction, and the incidents not less strange."-London Quarterly Review.

They show religious genius, as well as religious feeling."Transcript. "This is one of the most beautifully printed volumes which the season has brought out. Each hymn is good, and we shall be much surprised if the volume is not earnestly sought after by those who wish to give a choice present to a dear friend.”— Churchman. "The book is as rich in beauty to the eye, as the poems are in catholicity of spirit too refined for mere denominational claims."-Post. "Having read them again and again, we regard these Hymns as among the most truly poetical and spiritual compositions of the kind that have been given to the Christian public in many years. They are written in such simplicity of style, and at the same time are so elevated in sentiment, that they seem like the easy breathings of a soul that has been born from above, and that is lifting itself upward on the wings of faith and of love to hold communion with heaven."-New York Observer.
