Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of Latin and English Morality Emblems. The work of a Scottish scholar of the 17th-century, the author uses emblems to teach moral lessons to his readers. Emblems were a popular form of teaching in the 1600s; they were short poems accompanied by an image or symbol that illustrated the theme. This book is a wonderful collection of these emblems, with each emblem illustrated with an engraving, with the Latin emblem to the right, and an English translation underneath. The author's intent was to illustrate the spiritual life of the believer. The reader benefits from profound reflections on the Christian life, from the most basic understandings of faith, to thoughts on death and judgement, and the final glorious state of the believer in heaven. His writings have been praised by many, and he has been called, "the Scottish Buchanan". This book will not soon be forgotten, and will be of great help to those who desire to live a more Christian life.
