Christopher Wordsworth : sermons

Dorothy Wordsworth to Priscilla Wordsworth, 27 February 1815: 'The day before yesterday Miss Alne dined with us, and from her we learned that Chris[topher Wordsworth]'s sermons were just arrived at Brathay, so William walked to B. with Miss A. and borrowed one volume - It is the second. William and Mary have read several of the sermons and are very much delighted with them - I have not yet had leisure when the book has been at liberty and have only snatched a look at the subjects and the mode of treating them which appear to me to be very interesting. Pleased I was to greet that discourse upon Paul and Festus which I heard my Brother preach at Binfield ... I have not read any part of the sermon on Paul and Festus; but on looking it over it seems to me as if it had been shortened ... The only sermon on which I can say I have read any part is that upon National Education and an excellent discourse it appears to be.'
