Excerpt from Lessons Derived From the Plant: The Baccalaureate Sermon, Preached Before the College of New Jersey, June 26, 1870
All this exercised a most beneficent influence on pious men in ancient Israel. Living as they did much in the open air, and in perpetual view of the wondrous works of God in earth and sky, nature was seen by them to be full of God; the grass sprang, the flowers bloomed.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This work by the author provides a scholarly summary of a notable baccalaureate sermon delivered by James McCosh, the former president of Princeton College, to the graduating class of 1870. It offers a rich exploration of the sermon's central themes, offering insights into the Victorian era's religious, intellectual, and educational landscape. At the core of McCosh's sermon is the idea of seeking divine guidance and trusting in God's providence, as exemplified by the natural world, particularly the growth and adornment of plants. Drawing parallels between the lilies of the field and the lives of believers, McCosh encourages the graduates to cultivate faith and find solace in God's care, even amidst the uncertainties of life. The author's analysis delves into the sermon's historical context, highlighting the influence of Scottish Common Sense Realism and the broader Victorian emphasis on piety and self-reliance. The book not only provides a meticulous examination of McCosh's sermon but also offers a valuable glimpse into the religious and cultural values that shaped the minds of prominent figures during that era.
