of Sermons preached in the chapel of Lincoln's Inn by Frederick Denison Maurice, M.A. Third edition. (Macmillan.) 1871.—This is a now edition of one of Mr. Maurice's fluost works,—one In which he displays to the, utmost that mixture of historical insight and depth of religious feeling so characteristic of his genius.
