The five Sermons which form the body of this little book on Dante were delivered in the ordinary course of my ministry at Little Portland Street Chapel, in the autumn of 1878, and subsequently at the Free Christian Church, Croydon, in a slightly altered form. They are now printed, at the request of many of my hearers, almost exactly as delivered at Croydon. The substance of a sixth Sermon has been thrown into an Appendix. In allowing the publication of this little volume, my only thought is to let it take its chance with Other fugitive productions of the Pulpit that appeal to the Press as a means of widening the possible area rather than extending the period over which the preacher's voice may extend; and my only justification is the hope that it may here and there reach hands to which no more adequate treatment of the subject was likely to find its way
