Excerpt from The Last Times: An Earnest Discussion of Momentous Themes
A few exceptions have been taken to former editions of this book. Its Spirit was thought too positive, dogmatical, and severe. This criticism was not felt to be just. Strong, bold language was indeed employed; for it would be useless to think Of making an impression in any other way; but as to dogma tical proscriptiveness, or disrespect to those entertaining differ ent Opinions, nothing was further from the author's feelings, or from the design of his book. Nevertheless, the revision has removed some passages, and modified others, which, per haps, were liable to misconstruction in these particulars. If any thing remains which might reasonably disturb the most kindly feelings and relations with those who see things in a different light, the author is not conscious of it, and does not so intend it.
