Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Works of the Rev. John Harris, D.D
In reference to the nation primarily addressed, this language implies the following things: That there is a sense in which it was to be viewed as one collective being, and hence it is spoken of as a person, a single individual that this moral agent was labouring under an alarming moral disease that for this disease there existed an adequate remedy; that for the neglect of this remedy no justifiable reason could be assigned, so that the conduct of the nation was inexcusable, and involved the highest guilt but that it was yet the duty of such as saw and felt these truths to seek the recovery of that patient to the last, pointing her to the remedy, and remonstrating with her on the guilt of her contin ued neglect.
