Mr. Robert Pollok, a Scottish poet,
while a student Of theology once delivered
a trial discourse before the Secession Di-
vinity hall, Glasgow, tho subject Of which
was "Sin." His manner Of treating it
was in the opinion OF his fellow students,
rather bombastic, and at some passages
there wcrc audible symptoms Of the aInuse-
ment which they derived from Mr.. Pol
lok S high flown phrases.
At last there came one flight Of fancy
which was so remarkable that tho profess
or himself was fairly Obliged 10 give way
and smiled. IL was when tho young
preacher had reached a climax in his emu
mcration Of the dreadful evils which sin
had brought into the world
And had IL not been for sin. " remark
