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."
