Book excerpt: Excerpt from Remains, Literary and Theological, of Connop Thirlwall, Late Lord Bishop of St. David's, Vol. 1: Charges; Delivered Between the Years 1842 and 1860 IT was Bishop Thirlwall's intention, had his life been spared, to reprint his Charges, and to make a selection from his other writings, for publication. He had expressed a wish to consult me on the subject, and he had suggested that it might be desir able to curtail the Charges by the omission of passages which were of a personal nature, or which he deemed to be of little permanent interest. But he died before the opportunity of our meeting came; and beyond indicating very briefly the kind of selection which he proposed to make, he left no further directions to guide me. It has been a melancholy pleasure to me to fulfil to the best of my ability the wishes of my dear and lamented friend. The short list of Essays and Sermons which he had drawn up has been carefully followed. I have merely added to the number. But I did not feel myself at liberty to cut out a single passage of the Charges. N 0 hand but his own could have done this. They are, therefore, reprinted exactly as they originally appeared.
