STONES OF THE TEMPLE
or
Lessons from the fabric and furniture
of the Church
By WALTER FIELD, M.A., F.S.A.
RIVINGTONS
London, Oxford, and Cambridge
1871
"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."
