Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Voice From Abroad, or Thoughts on Missions: From a Missionary to His Classmates
There is no romance in the practical and every. Day duties of a missronary. The work is of a humble form, and emphatically toilsome. There isbut very little true missionary Spirit in the world for it is not the sympathy of an hour, nor enthusiasm awakened, by feelings of to mance, but, the pure love of Christ in the soul, con straining the possessor to pray earnestly. And to labor cheerfully without notice or applause, for the lowest human objects; and which finds a rich and sufficient reward for a life of toil, in leading one ignorant slave, one degraded outcast, or one vile and beastly heathen.
