Excerpt from Equality of the Rich and the Poor: A Sermon Preached at Portsmouth, on Thanksgiving Day, 25th of November, 1841We are called to be conversant with both. We see them under all their various aspects. We discover their several defects, we learn too their respective virtues. We have the opportunity of knowing them more fully than they know each other. And we feel authorized to say, (at least 1 do for one), that if they saw in each other the good qualities which we, as the impartial friends of both, cannot but perceive, they would never again be disunited by cold suspicion and defiance on the one side, or harsh severity and contempt on' the other, but, with all their diversities of condition, they would applaud each other's virtues, and take pleasure in seeking each other's happiness.Willing to contribute my humble mite for the furtherance of a more desirable state of feeling between the rich and the poor, let me specify, on this occasion, some points of agreement between the two classes.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
