    Description

    Leather Binding, Rebound, Scarce

    A fascinating manual of Christian daily devotions and prayers. This is the twenty-fourth edition of this work, though it was originally published in 1771. 

    This manual is separated into three parts: (I) Prayers for Families and Private Persons, (II) Offices of Humiliation, For the Sick, and For Women with Child, and (III) An Office for the Holy Communion and Some Occasional Prayers. 

    A revealing work about the prayers and devotions of early nineteenth-century Christians and Anglicans. 

    Containing two previous owners' ink signatures to the front free-endpaper: 'Isabella Swiny' and 'For Sinclair Hood, 1919'. 

    Also containing a handwritten devotion to one of the front free-endpapers, most likely written by Isabella Swiny as the handwriting is the same: 'Thou hast sinned to-day, defer not thy repentance till to-morrow. He who has promised pardon to thy repentance, hath not promised life till thou repent.'
