CHAPTER II.

EARLY LIVERPOOL LIFE.

“I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.”--Ps. cxix. 14.

“Live while you live, the epicure would say, And seize the pleasures of the present day. Live while you live, the sacred preacher cries, And give to God each moment as it flies: Lord, in my views let both united be, I live in pleasure when I live to Thee.” --DODDRIDGE.
