Book excerpt: Excerpt from Six Sermons on the Nature, Occasions, Signs, Evils, and Remedy of Intemperance N 0 sin has fewer apologies than intemperance The suffrage of the world is against it; and yet there is no sin so naked in its character, and whose commencement and progress is indicated by so many signs, concerning which there is among mankind such profound ignorance. All reprobate drunkenness; and yet, not one of the thousands who fall into it, dreams of danger when he enters the way that leads to it. The soldier, approaching the deadly breach, and seeing rank after tank of those who preced ed him swept away, hesitates sometimes, and recoils fiom certain death. But men behold the effects upon others, of going in given courses, they see them begin, advance, and end, in con firmed intemperance, and unappalled rush heed lessly upon the same ruin.
