Sermons Preached Upon Several Occasions. Vol. VII.

Robert South (1634–1716) was an English Anglican clergyman famed for his preaching. Educated at Westminster and Oxford, he became public orator of the university, chaplain to Charles II, and a canon of Christ Church. South's sermons — witty, learned, and combative in defense of the established church — fill the many volumes of his Sermons Preached Upon Several Occasions, long admired as models of polished pulpit prose.

About this book

Volume VII continues Robert South's collected sermons preached upon several occasions, bringing further evidence of his learning, wit, and moral force. The discourses expound Scripture and apply it to the ordinary business of repentance, obedience, and hope. Readers approaching the set volume by volume will find here the same disciplined eloquence that made South a model for later preachers.
