Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scripture Biography, or the Lives and Characters of the Principal Personages, Recorded in the Sacred Writings: Practically Adapted to the Instruction of Private Families In delineating the Scripture characters I had young per sons chie y in my view, and have therefore endeavoured to render the whole pleasing and instructive to them. The seeds of piety cannot be sown too early, and nothing will so much recommend religion as an agreeable form. History and Biography are very attractive to young minds, and if we can recommend the essential principles of religion by means of this species of composition, an important service will be rent-e dered to the rising generation. This method is also well calculated for family instruction on Sunday evenings, as nothing will excite attention or pro duce re ection so much as an entertaining and interesting narrative. Most of the articles in this volume are of such length as to be easily read through in one sitting afew only are considerably longer, and these may be divided into two or three portions, as shall appear most convenient.
