Excerpt from The Anglican Church in the Nineteenth Century: Indicating Her Relative Position to Dissent in Every Form IN investigating the position of a peculiar church, its present difficulties and their obvious consequences most emphatically invite attention, whence it has appeared that, objects in the foreground of the picture have been the immediate subjects of alteration, or chie¿y affected by the progress of time and differences of opinion, while all that which is in the background continues unvaried and established, and to this latter we may assign the whole of the past, as well as some portion of the present. Were we, in pursuance of our object, to limit ourselves to the principal theological Opinions, and the existing and actual state of religious life, many of our statements and assertions would be deficient in strength, and perhaps but imperfectly com prehended. Our researches must therefore be extended to the directions and regulations both of the constitution and the worship, and more especially when it is re membered that these matters are often less generally known and frequently unattainable.
