An Ample Apology


A CLERGYMAN at Cambridge preached a sermon which one of his auditors

commended. Yes, said the gentleman to whom it was mentioned, it was a

good sermon, but he stole it. This was repeated to the preacher, who

resented it, and called on the gentleman to retract. I will, replied

the aggressor. I said you had stolen the sermon. I find I was wrong,

for on referring to the book whence I thought it was taken, I found it

there.
