On his ris- ing up, instead of beginning to pray, as was the usual practice, he looked around the congregation with a piercing eye and earnest attention, and, after a minute's profound silence, he addressed them with great solemnity in the fol- lowing words : " My beloved brethren ! I am told you have come here to-day to fast and pray ; a very good work REV. W. TENNENT. 51 indeed, provided you have come here with a sincere desire to glorify God thereby ; but if your design is merely to comply with a customary practice, or with the wish of your church offi- cers, you are guilty of the greatest fol- ly imaginable, as you had much better have staid at home, and earned your three shillings and sixpence.
