The palace of fantasy : $b or, the bard's imagery; with other poems
Hardy, John Stockdale
English poetry -- 19th century
“This able work will afford in perusal, to all surviving relations,
consolation and diversion of mind of the most congenial kind. It
neither leads the thoughts to dwell painfully on one idea--that of
loss--nor does it altogether withdraw the mind from its
contemplation: an effort still more painful. The study of a work
like this, on the contrary, while it _gradually means grief from
its melancholy occupation_, supplies it with the sweetest and most
cheerful of all balm--THE HAPPY CERTAINTY OF REUNION, not after the
lapse of vast ages of time, but of the instant term of mortal
existence.”--THEOLOGICAL REVIEW.
Just published, price 4s., the Sixth Edition of
THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A DISSENTING MINISTER.
“Our own observation has shown us the truth of the statement put
forth in this well-written exposure of the tyranny to which the
greater portion of Dissenting Ministers are compelled to submit,
and the evils which the destruction of the Established Church would
bring upon religion.”--COURT JOURNAL.
“We warmly recommend this most excellent work to public notice.”
BRITISH MAGAZINE.
“This volume is one which strikes us as being likely to make a
considerable stir in the religious, high-church, and dissenting
world.”

THE CHURCH AND DISSENT,
Considered in their practical influence on Individuals, Society, the
Nation, and Religion.
By EDWARD OSLER, Esq.
“It would be impossible to find, in the whole range of our
literature, a work so admirably suited to the present times as this
invaluable little volume. The searching test to which the
respective systems have been submitted is so complete and
convincing, that the work ought to be studied by every Dissenter
and Churchman in the Kingdom, particularly at the present religious
crisis.”--CHRISTIAN REVIEW.
