Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Hundred Years Ago: A Sermon Preached to the First Church on the Close of Their Second Century 29 August 1830
Two hundred years of such maturity are not to be spoken of lightly. It is a space bearing a good pro portion to that, which gave the most refined people of antiquity all their glories of letters and art, and to that which meted out to the mightiest people that have yet risen on earth the most valuable portions of their dominion. With us every year has been a nar rative of plain but vigorous life; while a great part of the history of nations is usually the fable of their beginnings or the tedious tragedy of their decline.
