Book Description
Excerpt from A Sermon Preached Before His Excellency the Governor, His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor, and the Two Branches of the Legislature of Massachusetts: May 27, 1812, Being the Day of Annual Election As the constituted authorities of this Commonwealth are now assembled in this house, to bow before the altar of God, to worship and receive instruction from him before they enter on the duties of the present year, I have chosen for the theme of discourse before them, the words recorded in 1 Cor. xii. 18, 19, 20, 21. But now hath God set the members every one in the body as it hath pleased him. And if they were all one member, where were the body? But now are they many members, yet but one body. And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee. Nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. There is no better method of illustrating any subject, and fixing it on the mind, than by those metaphors and lively images in which language and nature abound. An example of this kind we have now before us. The text properly describes the Christian church in unity with itself, but may be lawfully appropriated to a civil community. A body politic may fitly be compared to the natural body which is fearfully and wonderfully made. What is true of the one is true of the other; There are many members subsisting in one body by a mutual connection and dependence among themselves. And though all the members have not the same office, yet they are all necessary in the connection and order in which they are placed to constitute it a perfect body, whose energy and support are within itself. Further to illustrate and improve this subject, will be the business of the following discourse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
