Excerpt from An Analytical Examination Into the Character, Value, and Just Application of the Writings of the Christian Fathers, During the Ante-Nicene Period: Being the Bampton Lectures for the Year MDCCCXXXIX

IN preparing to commit this series of Lectures to the judgment of the public, the Author cannot refrain from mentioning those circumstances con nected with their composition, which may, in some measure, claim for them a more indulgent consideration. His name was not originally pro posed as a candidate for the appointment which has called them forth; and was only suggested at the moment of election. He was thus neces sarily deprived of that time for deliberation, which is usual before the final acceptance of such an office, and which might very probably have re sulted in the conclusion.
