Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Evidences of Natural Religion and Christianity The firll part of this Treatil'e was ready for the prefs, and {hould have been publilhed early in 1801. The reafon why this intention was not executed, it is not interefiing to the publick to know. But if this publication had taken place at the time in tended, it would have laved me now another apology for' prefuming to bring forward this work, after that molt excellent performance of Dr. Paley's Elements of Natural Theology. One part of my apology is a candid and honeit acknowledgment, that it is a painful effort for an author to fupprefs a work, on which he has bellowed confiderable time and attention; and on which he has alfo let his heart. And to this, I have to add, that though Dr. Paley's work be direeted to the fame end, yet this, in no one part, interferes with it. This only wifhes to be regarded as a humble aflifiant, co-operating and bringing up fome additional materials to fupport the fame important fortrefs. They are nearly al lied in title: they accord altogether in dehga; but the plans are totally difl'erent, and the materials are no where the fame. Befides the Elements is a logical treatife, requiring confiderable knowledge to underfland, and Ready attention in reading, to reap from it real benefit. This is loofe and more defultory, fitted for readers of lefs knowledge, and who have it not in their power to bellow luch clofe attention.
