Excerpt from Heavenward: A Guide for Youth

This little volume owes its origin to the con viction of the author, that a book of its character is demanded both by the particular state of the times, and the condition and wants of the Church. Its design is to lift the aspirations of youth from perishing earthly prizes to a heavenward aim, and to an incorruptible crown. It also counsels the pilgrim, who has already set out for the better country, how he may overcome amid the many perils that beset him, and ever rise higher, in his race, for eternal life. And as the Blessed Goal is reached, and the portals of the heavenly city appear, it presents to the Christian those comforts ing promises and assurances of Scripture, which shall bear him up amid the swelling of the Jordan of Death, and bring him in triumph to the celes tial shore.
