Excerpt from A Manual of Prayers and a Guide to the Christian Life
Nea rly eight years have passed away, since the first edition of this little Manual was published. An adaptation in the main, of an English work known as Heygate's Manual, it was, like that, intended for a Special class of persons, amongst whom, from the beginning of his ministry, the compiler had been happily and contentedly laboring. But the book passed to a wider use than had been antici pated, gaming some circulation among persons who had no other poverty save poverty of spirit. Notwithstanding this, it may still be regarded as intended for christ's Poor; since it is not merely those who are poor in this world's goods, but those who are poor in spirit, that the Lord ao counts to be blessed, and thus marks for, His own.
The new edition differs from preceding ones in this respect: that some matter which was in the first edition, and which was omitted in the second and third, is now re placed. But, substantially, there is no change.
