Excerpt from Life of Philip Doddridge, D. D: With Notices of Some of His Contemporaries, and Specimens of His Style May the divine blessing still attend the labors of this saintly divine, who being dead yet speaketh in his valuable writings in strains of exquisite simplicity, tenderness and pathos, to thou sands in all Christian lands; and by means of his writings may multitudes still be enlightened and guided to the blessed Saviour, who is the way and the truth, and the life, - the bright and morning star.
