Reverend James Meyrick | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

1858. The Treatise was written in the by the Reverend James Meyrick, late Vicar of Westbury in the county of Wilts. His purpose was not to produce an original composition, but to express the doctrine of the Church of England, and the arguments on which that doctrine is founded, as clearly and concisely as possible, for the sake of being readily understood by Continental readers. Another purpose was to show those who knew the author that the same loyalty and affection to the Church of England which was displayed during health in winning souls to Christ by earnest and active parochial ministrations, remained undiminished in illness and that his last efforts were directed towards the defense of the position of that branch of Christ's Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
