The Bible.

“We won’t give up the Bible, God’s blessed book of truth, The blessed staff of hoary age, The guide of early youth.”
Mr. Cecil, during a very severe illness, said to a person who spoke of it, “It is all Christ. I keep death in view. If God does not please to raise me up, he intends me better. I find everything but religion, only vanity. To recollect a promise of the Bible: this is substance! Nothing will do but the Bible. If I read authors, and hear different opinions, I cannot say, This is truth! I cannot grasp it as a substance; but the Bible gives something to hold. I have learned more within these curtains than from all the books I ever read.”
