"Go, call thy Sons-instruct them what a debt

They owe their Ancestors, and make them swear
To pay it, by transmitting down entire

Those Sacred Rights to which themselves were born."

"The life and death of Martyrs, who sustained,
With will inflexible, those fearful pangs
Triumphantly displayed in records left
Of Persecution and the Covenant-Times
Whose echo rings in Scotland to this hour.'

Akenside.

Wordsworth.

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION.

ENCOURAGED by the favourable reception which the First Edition of this little work has met a reception much more favourable than the Author ventured to anticipate-he sends forth this Second Edition, which he has not only considerably enlarged, but, as he hopes, somewhat improved.

H, 1st October, 1840.
