Synopsis

Excerpt from Flight of Years: A Discourse, Delivered in the First Independent Church of Baltimore

I know of no words in which the rapid flight of time is more powerfully portrayed than in these words of the Psalmist. They bring the thing home to us so strongly, that they produce a sort of breath less astonishment, as if we beheld the car of time itself rushing by so swiftly, that it is almost at the same moment approaching, passing and disappearing out of sight. The ages that are gone become as a dream, the present diminishes to a point, and we anticipate the time, when the generation that now is, shall be numbered among the things of the past, and all that interests us so deeply, shall be regarded by our successors as an idle tale.
