PREFACE
THIS little work does not claim to bring out any new ideas upon the Sabbath question.WFS 3.1
It does not claim to treat exhaustively any branch of the subject, but only to touch upon its more salient features, in a manner, perhaps, to arrest the attention of the reader, and suggest profitable lines of thought.WFS 3.2
We have thrown it into the form of rhyme and meter, with the idea that it might thus secure a perusal from some who would otherwise give no attention to this important subject.WFS 3.3
Being mostly of an argumentative nature, a style of writing not particularly adapted to the flights and fancies of poetry, it claims no particular merits in that direction. The effort has been chiefly to guard against introducing an unnecessary amount of verbiage, and sacrificing perspicuity for the sake of the rhyme.WFS 3.4
The rest we leave with the reader; only adding that, however tamely expressed, the great importance of the subject gives importance to the thoughts that are uttered; and offering a prayer that by means of this little effort an interest may be aroused in some minds on this subject, which is to be so intimately connected with the religious life of the present generation, and affect so largely their prospects touching the life to come. U.S. Battle Creek, Mich., March, 1875.WFS 3.5
