MOST of the following pieces have appeared already in different journals, or in other shapes and ways, during the last twelve years. They are now gathered together into one volume, in order that anything useful in them may be preserved and made more accessible. They are what they are here called, HYMNS OF FAITH AND HOPE. They belong to no church or sect. They are not the expressions of one man's or one party's faith and hope, but are meant to speak what may be thought and spoken by all to whom the Church's ancient faith and hope are dear. KELSO, December 19, 1856. IN preparing this New Edition of these three volumes (which have now, in all, reached an impression of nearly 90,000), no change has been made save that of throwing some of the translations of the third volume into the first, and some of the "Memories of the East" into the second.
