Surrey Chapel and reform era in eighteenth century England
The piece recounts religious revival led by Rowland Hill and others in London, the founding of Surrey Chapel in 1783, and Hill's fifty-year pastorate, highlighting a shift from formalism to evangelical preaching. It also covers garden and horticulture notes and a Quaker meeting with Alexander and Allen, plus brief vignettes on Austrian schooling, American literary scenes, and Lamartine’s publisher encounter.
