“ The plan appears to me a very admirable one; and the execution of the work, if I may presume 
to say so, seems every way worthy of the design; and, from what I know of your other writings, I feel 
convinced that, while the whole will breathe a truly evangelical spirit, every thing sectarian will .be 
omitted, I shall feel a pleasure in recommending it to those among 
my flock who may be in need of such an aid for the holy and happy / / Ayp> 
services of the Family Altar.” “ Streatham.” ss ^ t

“ The Prayers are admirably calculated to excite the best feelings of the renewed mind—to elevate 
and'purify the affections, and to bring the soul into closer union and fellowship with God. Open wlier e 
you°may, you will find assistance in 
. your devout meditations. Trusting 
to the blessing of God, I recommend 
this work to the religious public in 
general.”

“ I learn that the excellent compositions of this nature, of Mr. Jay and Mr. Fletcher, have been 
extensively useful, and obtained a great circulation. It is no slight praise to say, that your work, in my 
view, is inferior to neither, and for 
justness of sentiment, propriety of ex- 
pression, and comprehensiveness of 
meaning, is likely tobave few equals.” ty **

“ I am much pleased with the nature, style, and piety of the ‘ Family Prayers.’ It appears tome 
eminently calculated for usefulness. Would that every household laid to heart and put into 
practice the excellent hints on family 
religion contained in the preliminary 
dissertation. , .

“ Dr. Morison’s Book of Prayers is, in my humble judgment, a very valuable one. The style is chaste 
and perspicuous; the thoughts comprehen¬ 
sive and scriptural; and the spirit warm, 
free, heavenly. May God make it useful!” 
“ Fetter Lane.” 
“I have read several of the prayers in your forth-coming Manual; and my impression, from the 
specimens thus afforded me, is, that they are eminently adapted for usefulness. Family religion is a 
thing of so much importance, that I rejoice in every judicious effort made for its promotion; and, on 
this account,,I hail your intended publication with peculiar delight.”

“ So far as I have been able to peruse this work of Dr. Morison, for augmenting the blessing of 
of family worship, it appears to me well adapted to its design. .. 
The prince in his palace, and the poor shepherd in his mountain 
cabin, are supplied with incitements and assistances, especially to 
their social devotions, which are of the most valuable character 
“ Homerton. 
“ The design of Dr. Morison’s work on family 
religion is one of the greatest importance, and 
its execution is characterised by so great a de¬ 
gree of sound judgment and fervent piety, as to 
make it exceedingly desirable that the use of it 
should be in every way encouraged among the 
class of persons for whom it is intended.

« Judging from the specimens which I have seen—the Prayers themselves appear to possess, in 
an eminent degree, the qualities requisite in such composures.... .They happily blend the sweet affec¬ 
tions of domestic life with the more expansive feelings of Christian philanthropy... • They are tho¬ 
roughly free of all sectarian narrowness. Christian heads of families who do need them, may use them 
without apprehension, and with much benefit; while others, by the perusal of them, may improve their

spirit of devotion, and enrich their resources of extemporaneous worship.”
