Have been meaning to write the following up for some time. Taken from my copy of “Tales of the Covenanters”, the original is from a book called “Meditations, Representing a Glimpse of Glory” by Andrew Wellwood.
“How oft have I thought, if the wilderness is so sweet and pleasant, what must the inland be! Is there such ravishing variety of beauty, glory, and sweetness, all along in my pilgrimage – what can I imagine to behold in my native country? Is the habitation where devils, wicked men, and beasts inhabit, so excellent and glorious – what can I think of the place where Jesus, the Emmanuel, with His fair company of saints and angels everlastingly abides? Is my God’s footstool so glorious – what must His throne be? Is the under-vault of this base dungeon so majestic – oh, the higher hall of glory, where the glorious King and His magnificent court remain!”
