Summary

Dale discusses the perpetual conflict between Christianity and worldliness. He warns against "the bitter melancholy, this profound discontent with all things in Heaven above and on the earth beneath". Rejecting the concept of "the sanctity of misery" he criticizes the Book of Ecclesiastes and the image of the traditional "Romish Saint", and concludes by saying that for the miseries which we cannot escape, the Divine love affords infinite consolation.
