Excerpt from A Discourse Delivered in the Spanish and Portuguese Jews' Synagogue, in Bevis Marks, on the Day of the Funeral of H. R. H. Prince Augustus Frederick, Duke of Sussex, 4th Iyar, 5603, A. M. 4th May, 1843In repeating the name of His Royal Highness to our children, we shall instruct them continually to advocate and cherish truth and justice, and to sacrifice personal interest on all occasions when the necessities of the poor and the af¿icted demand their zealous aid, which they Should ever afford, from no other motive than a desire to please the Almighty. Our children, by this means, will become faithful to their God, loyal to the Govern ment Of the country in which they live, and good men to all their fellow-creatures whatsoever.Thus, my brethren, while others on this day assemble round the vault to see inhumed the mortal remains of our late illustrious prince, and Shrink with awe at the Sight Of the insatiable grave, we, in this temple of the Lord, bow in grateful adoration to Him, for all that He, in his divine wisdom, may choose for us to bear, and recite the good deeds Of our deceased friend, that, even as angels, they may accompany his soul to the regions Of interminable bliss. And let us ourselves, my brethren, look up to Heaven, as though we could see the departed soul amid the radiant stars that surround the glory Of the Supreme Creator: for his divine law is truth and justice, and his name, and his mercy, endure for ever.
