Excerpt from book: and thus they have connected a clergyman's visit with death; they are frightened to send for him, as though they gave themselves over by so doing. But all this is wrong. The sick should not wait till they are past hope; all this dread and nervousness at the visit of their ghostly friend and guide would be lessened, if men were apt to seek his help in lesser sicknesses, or at the beginning of the sickness.

Or if you want the clergyman's prayers or counsel to do you good, you must pray also for a bless...
