A short history of the state of man, with regard to religion and morals : from the beginning of the world to the Reformation. Drawn from scripture, and adapted, in easy, familiar diction, to the capacities of the younger sort; with useful observations: To which are subjoined several Examples of Wickedness punish'd, and Virtue rewarded, as set forth in Holy Writ. The Design of the Whole, being to give Youth such a previous View of Sacred History, and the Principles of the Christian Religion, as may qualify them for hearing Sermons, and reading pious Books to full Advantage; and, at the same Time, to impress on their tender Minds an affecting Sense of God, and the great Mercy of Redemption by Christ. By the Rev. Mr. Wetenhall Wilkes, Minister of Hounslow in Middlesex.
