Sinopsis

Excerpt from Select Essays, Doctrinal and Practical, on a Variety of the Most Important and Interesting Subjects in Divinity: Together With a Sermon, on the Great Matter and End of Gospel Preaching

The Rev. William m'ewnn, the worthy author of the following Essays, was descended from pious and respectable parents in the town of Perth, who spared neither pains nor expence to give him a truly christian and liberal education. To this they were greatly encouraged by the early attachment which he himself shewed, both to piety and learn lug.

His constitution of body was rather delicate and weakly; though in common he was tolerably healthy; but his intellectual powers were sound and strong. He had a penetrating and comprehensive mind; a fine perception and an elegant taste. These happy talents were attended with solidity ofjndgment, and a sense ofthe truly beautiful and sublime, peculiar to himself; and still farther heightened, by an imagina tion and invention equally lively, and a memory un commonly capacious and retentive.
