Описание: Excerpt from Sermon on the Death of Father Taylor, Preached in the Seamen's Bethel, April 16, 1871: In Memoriam O him Whose thought is shaped by the seeming this may appear a strange saying to introduce upon such an occasion as this; and indeed, if only the revealings of Nature afford us data as we gaze upon the face of the dead, words like these were vainly spoken. Their contradiction would lie before us in the closed eye, sealed lip, and lifeless form of the dead. But the light of the blessed gospel, as declared by Him who brought life and immortality to light, has illumed earth's darkest scenes, and enabled us to pass beyond the outward semblance, and grasp the spiritual significance of this language, between which and the gloomy realization of our frailty no real con tradiction exists. Standing here to-day with a mournful conscious ness of the fact that death has wrested from our grasp the visible presence of a dearly-loved pastor, friend.
