Overview

Excerpt from Sacred Rhetoric: Or, the Art of Rhetoric as Applied to the Preaching of the Word of God A priest should for every reason be an educated man; and, bound as he is by his Ministry to teach and preach, Rhetoric forms an essential part of his educa tion. As in the Old Law, so also in the New, The lips of the Priest shall keep knowledge, and they shall seek the law at his month, because he is the Angel of the Lord of Hosts (mal. Ii. Like other arts, Rhetoric aims at perfection within its own sphere, but, like them too, it adapts itself to the capacity of the learner, and the use he may have to make of it. Hence, in learning Rhetoric the student is to take account of his own capacity in the first place, and then keep constantly in view the occasions he may have for exercising, and displaying, the proficiency he will have attained.
