Bp. BLOMFIELD, Dr. CHALMERS, ROBERT HALL, Bp. HEBER, JONES OF MILDERT, &c., &c.; WITH Occasional Biographical Sketches of the Authors, and Notes. BY THE REVEREND THOMAS FROGNALL DIBDIN, D.D., RECTOR OF ST. MARY'S, BRYANSTON SQUARE; AND CHAPLAIN IN ORDINARY TO HER NEW EDITION. IN SIX VOLUMES. VOL. I. LONDON: LONGMAN, BROWN, GREEN & LONGMANS, PATERNOSTER ROW. I HAVE ventured, without the permission of your Grace, to dedicate this work to YOURSELF. Such a dedication would seem to imply a pledge that the doctrines which it imparts are worthy of the best principles of our vi Church, and illustrative of the most vital interests of our Religion. The established reputation of those Authors, from whose works the present selection is made, can scarcely fail to assure the unprejudiced reader that such will be the probable issue. Under this impression, which induces a well-grounded hope of obtaining your Grace's sanction, I hasten to subscribe myself, with much truth, Your Grace's obedient and faithful humble Servant, T. F. DIBDIN. December 14. 1830. |
