As for a duty absolute in the nature of things, or a duty as owing to themselves, in respect to their own nature, or a duty a» imposed by the Almighty,— ^^ their minds ^sh^uld he in acerUan prescribed state, — there does really require a perfectly new manner of the action of intellect to enable them to apprehend its existence. And this hi^itual insensibility to any jurisdiction oyer their internal state, now meets> in its conse^ quences, the suf^osed instructor. In consi- deration of the vast i...mportance of this part of a rational creature's accountaUeness, and partly, too, firom a desire to avoid the invidioosness of appearing as a judicial censor of the sick man's practical conduct, he insists in an especial man- ner on this subject of the state within, endea* vouring to expose, that dark wodd by the light of religion to the sick mean's conscience. But to give la an hour the understanding which it requires the discipline of many yeans to render competent! How vain the attempt! The man's sense of guilt fixes almost exclusively on some- thing, that has been improper in his practical courses.
