up on thy cross of sacrifice; lifted up in the resurrection; lifted up in thy glorious ascension, to that heaven of heavens, whither thou hast gone before, our forerunner.

Even so, blessed Lord, let me be drawn unto thee, according to thy promise; even so, blessed Lord, may I pass from death to life, from the grave to my joyful resurrection. Even so, may I sit down at thy right hand, the ransomed of the Lord; waiting until that glorious time, when, with angels, and archangels, and all the host of heaven -saints and martyrs, and spirits of just men made perfect-I shall dwell with thee for evermore. Yea, I will come to Sion with songs, and I will have everlasting joy upon my head, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away, and I shall be with the Lord for ever.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus. Even so, hear, O my Father. Even so, through the blood of thy dear Son, I pray,-three in one, and one in three.

"BLESSING, AND GLORY, AND WISDOM, AND THANKSGIVING,

AND HONOUR, AND POWER, AND MIGHT, BE UNTO OUR GOD FOR EVER AND EVER." AMEN.

THE END.

"Many things are said by E. W. which W. E. would not be ashamed to have said. A person so observant would probably shine in a more elaborate production; and such, it is intimated, might follow the public approbation of the present small tome. We, at any rate, should be glad to see it.”—Literary Gazette.

"The Observations' are full of thought and feeling; and we are certain that this little book will find a place upon every table; with women especially, it must become a favourite, for its talented author loses no opportunity in shewing his good sense, and his good taste, in upholding and exalting the sex." -Court Journal.

"E. W. is a miniature Lacon-in spirit, too, as well as in size. Some of his observations are shrewd-some smartly said."-Athenæum.

"Kernels."-Old England.

"This pretty little volume professes to be the excentration of a larger work. It will take up its position by the side of Lacon. Had Isocrates been in existence among us, he would have written with the same acuteness, originality, and sobriety of judgment. No person who would lean upon a sufficient guide through the intricacies of this world's wilderness, should be without this admirable work."-Gloucestershire Chronicle.

"There is much of sound moral sentiment in it."-Windsor Express. "Its merits can only be shewn by extracts."-Oxford Herald.

"A work possessing great merit; an extensive sale may be anticipated.”Merthyr Guardian.

Occasional extracts have been given in the " Saturday Magazine." See Numbers 277, 279, &c. &c.
