Quote 147 of 281

From the diary of Samuel Pepys (1663-1703)

He [the famous young Stillingfleete] did make the most plain,
honest, good, grave sermon, in the most unconcerned and easy yet
substantial manner, that ever I heard in my life---upon the words of
Samuell to the people---"Fear the Lord in truth with all your heart,
and remember the great things that he hath done for you"---it being
proper to this day, the day of the King's Coronation.
