Book Description

Excerpt from Outlines of Instructions or Meditations: For the Church's Seasons Some years ago Mr. Keble's MS. Sermons were entrusted to us, with a view to our making selections from them for publication. This has been done, and eleven Volumes have been published, under the superintendence of Dr. Pusey, who wrote a Preface to the Volume for Lent, which was the first published, though now standing fourth of the ten Volumes which form the series for the Christian Year. Vol. XI. being a miscellaneous collection. But together with the mass of Sermons (dating from the year 1815 to 1865, thus reaching over half a century), and other MSS. sent to us, there were a large number of scraps of paper of all sorts and sizes, backs of letters, of parish notices, &c., &c., past counting, but weighing, when put together, over five pounds. These had been found, when Mr. Keble's papers had to be removed from Hursley Vicarage, scattered about in all kinds of places, and had been carefully collected by his nephew, the Rev. J. Keble, jun., from whom we received them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
