1. THE KEY OF THE GRAVE. A Book for the Bereaved.
By W. Robertson Nicoll, M.A., LL.D. Third Edition.
"Dr. Robertson Nicoll has produced a unique, exquisite, and most edifying book. We are much impressed by the delicate and profound spiritual insight manifested on every page of this beautiful little volume. Many a familiar passage in the Bible shines with a new, unexpected, and immortal light. It is difficult to know what to quote from a volume so full of delightful and memorable passages. It is pre-eminently a book to put into the hands of the refined, sensitive, scholarly, and devout, when they feel the awful pressure of the greatest bereavement."—Methodist Times.
2. MEMORANDA SACRA. By Professor J. Rendel Harris,
M.A., Fellow of Clare College, Cambridge. Second Edition.
"Two gifts, both of the very highest, are marvellously united in Professor
Rendel Harris, and here we have the ripe fruits of one, in most delicious
flavour and most wholesome nourishment. It is not possible to review
such a book as this. Words about it do not tell us what it is. Nor will
a selection of words from it half convey its incommunicable fragrance."—Expository
Times.
THE GENERAL GORDON EDITION.
3. CHRIST MYSTICAL. By Joseph Hall, D.D., Bishop of
Norwich. Reprinted, with General Gordon's marks, from the
Original Copy used by him, and with an Introduction on his
Theology by the Rev. H. Carruthers Wilson, M.A.
"Hall's treatise is in itself an excellent example of the best kind of devotional literature, and it will contribute to its appreciation by the modern reader that its sacred teachings and appeals formed part of the spiritual nourishment of the English 19th century hero and saint."—Christian World.
4. RUYSBROECK AND THE MYSTICS. With selections
from Ruysbroeck. By Maurice Maeterlinck. Authorised
Translation by Jane T. Stoddart.
"It does much to make intelligible and attractive a powerful religious thinker, from whom most readers would turn aside on account of the perplexities and vagueness of his manner."—Scotsman.
