2011-11-02. Added Divine Songs and Meditacions by Anne Collins, described by the digitizer Stephen Hutcheson as "Despite the title, it's not really "songs" as in "texts that could be sung", but devotional poetry. An interesting bit of puritan piety, which had some influence in its time, then disappeared ... well, except for one copy, thought to be unique, which surfaced in 1815 after a century of oblivion."

GOD'S LOVE: THE COMPELLING FORCE OF CHRISTIAN MISSIONS
Novelist Reynolds Price claims that Jesus' teaching "has resulted in the most far-reaching movements of mercy, tolerance and human freedom..." ("Jesus of Nazareth: Then and Now," Time, Dec 6, 1999, p. 94). For this reason he also asserts that Jesus' words in Matthew 11:28-29, "Come to me," offer the old welcome. Even though Price professes that Jesus cured him from cancer, he cannot accept Jesus' final instruction to his disciples in Matthew 28:18-20.
