The old proverb hath it, 'Here's talk of the Turk and the Pope, but 'tis my next neighbour that does me the most harm.' It is neither popery nor infidelity that we have half so much cause to dread as our own besetting sins. We want more Protestants against sin, more Dissenters from carnal maxims, and more Nonconformists to the world. Our own besetting sins require far more of our watchfulness than State blunders or ecclesiastical abuses.
