Synopsis

Excerpt from The Commandments of Jesus

And yet my own book is derived not from these writers, to whom I acknowledge great obligations, but simply from the inexhaustible richness of the Lord's precepts themselves. It seems to me that, as they can never grow old, so they can never be fully explored. Coleridge once said that to restore a fading counsel of morality to its pristine lustre it is necessary only to put it into practice. And every attempt to regulate one's life by these principles of Jesus, which have been the familiar mottoes on the walls of life since life began, hung about the cradle, in the nursery and the schoolroom, in the church and in the State, furbishes their golden letters and makes them gleam with a new beauty.
