FOOTNOTES

[9] Those who are interested in the historic parallels supplied by Christian biography, will find a similar instructive dream in the Life of General Burn, vol. i. pp. 127–130.

[11] Ivimey’s Life of Bunyan, pp. 51–53.

[30a] Remains, vol. iii. p. 391.

[30b] The other items contained in the book that this text comes from were: Jerusalem Sinner Saved; Pharisee and the Publican; The Trinity and the Christian; The Law and a Christian; Bunyan’s Last Sermon; Bunyan’s Dying Sayings and An Exhortation to Peace and Unity. All of them are available from Project Gutenberg—DP.

[32a] Pascal was an exception. D’Aubigné, so far as writing in French makes a Frenchman, is another. Their works are full of fancy, but it is the fancy which gives to truth its wings. The rocket is charged, not with coloured sparks, but burning jewels.

[32b] Here, again, exceptions occur, and the greatest of our Scottish preachers is a contradiction to the characteristic style of his country.
