STONES OF THE TEMPLER I V I N G T O N S London Waterloo Place STONES OF THE TEMPLE STONES OF THE TEMPLE or Lessons from the fabric and furniture By WALTER FIELD, M.A., F.S.A. RIVINGTONS "When it pleased God to raise up kings and emperors favouring sincerely the Christian truth, that which the Church before either could not or durst not do, was with all alacrity performed. Temples were in all places erected, no cost was spared: nothing judged too dear which that way should be spent. The whole world did seem to exult, that it had occasion of pouring out gifts to so blessed a purpose. That cheerful devotion which David did this way exceedingly delight to behold, and wish that the same in the Jewish people might be perpetual, was then in Christian people every where to be seen. So far as our Churches and their Temple have one end, what should let but that they may lawfully have one form?"—Hooker's "Ecclesiastical Polity." ✠ |
