Excerpt from The Sabbath: With Sabbath Walks, and Other Poems In the first of the following Poems, I have endeavoured to describe some of the pleasures and duties peculiar to the seventh day. The appropriation of so considerable a portion of human life to religious services, to domestic enjoyment, and to meditative leisure, is a most important branch of the divine dispensation. The extent of the boon appears in its most striking light, when we consider the days of rest in any given period, as accumulated into one sum. - He who has seen threescore and ten years, has lived ten years of Sabbaths.
