by a table contained on a sheet or two of paper, any thing he wrote can be turned to at pleasure.

The following lines in a poem by Dr. Dwight, entitled, "The Triumph of Infidelity," may not be an unsuitable close to our account of this eminent man. The poem is written in a strain of irony, as well as the explanatory notes; and though the descriptions are supposed to be given by the prince of darkness, yet most of them are striking likenesses to the originals. This is given by way of complaint.

"But, my chief bane, my apostolic foe,
In life, in labours, source of every woe,

From scenes obscure did heav'n his Edwards call,
That moral Newton, and that second Paul.

He, in clear view, saw sacred systems roll,
Of reasoning worlds, around their central soul;
Saw love attractive every system bind,

The parent linking to each filial mind;
The end of heav'n's high works resistless shew'd,
Creating glory, and created good;

And, in one little life, the gospel more

Disclos'd, than all earth's myriads kenn'd before,
Beneath his standard, lo! what numbers rise,
To care for truth, and combat for the skies!
Arm'd at all points, they try the battling field,
With reason's sword, and faith's etherial shield."
