Excerpt from Political Preaching, or the Meditations of a Well-Meaning Man, on a Sermon Lately Published: In a Letter Addressed to the Rev. Mr. William Dun, Minister of Kirkintulloch

Reverend Sir,

There is no species of composition which pleases me more, than a good sermon on any moral or religious subject. I read discourses of that kind, not in the expectation of meeting with any thing new, on topics which have been so often and so fully discussed, but in the hope of having my heart made better; and when they happen to be written with perspicuity and spirit, I find them extremely useful in reminding me of my duty, and in rousing me to the proper discharge of it. In every discourse which bears the title of a sermon, I expect to find, either some doctrine of religion illustrated, and applied for the consolation of the Christian, or some duty of life explained, and enforced by suitable arguments. When this is not the case, I feel a grievous disappointment. I am not, however, one of those morose religionists, who take no concern in human affairs.
