Lay Sermons: The Statesman's Manual; Blessed Are Ye That Sow Beside The Waters is a collection of essays by the famous English poet and philosopher, Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Originally published in 1852, this book contains two of Coleridge's most important essays on politics and religion.The first essay, The Statesman's Manual, is a treatise on the role of government and the responsibilities of those in power. Coleridge argues that the state has a duty to promote the welfare of its citizens, but also that individuals have a responsibility to participate in the political process and hold their leaders accountable.The second essay, Blessed Are Ye That Sow Beside The Waters, is a meditation on the nature of religious faith and the importance of spiritual nourishment. Coleridge draws on biblical imagery and personal experience to explore the idea that faith requires a constant renewal of the soul, and that this renewal is best achieved through a connection to the natural world.Throughout Lay Sermons, Coleridge's prose is characterized by its depth and complexity, as well as its poetic beauty. The book is a testament to his status as one of the most important thinkers of his time, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intersection of politics, religion, and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
