Excerpt from The Doctrines of Friends: Or, Principles of the Christian Religion, as Held by the Society of Friends, Commonly Called Quakers
Though the arrangement of the subjects, and the manner of treating them, have been dictated by the views presented to my own mind, yet in the subjects themselves, I have endeavoured to keep to the ao knowledged doctrines of the Society. And in com piling the following pages, I have made such ex tracts, from the writings of our early Friends, as seemed necessary to establish the position, that they held the principles laid down. And in taking these extracts I have consulted those parts of their writ ings, in which they make a statement of what they believe, rather than those in which they expose the errors of contrary opinions.
