The With Some Account Of His Life by Thomas Sherlock. The volume surveys a collection of mid-18th-century Anglican sermons that braid theology, politics, and social ethics to urge unity, loyalty, and public virtue in Britain after unrest. Delivered in London-era venues such as Temple Church, St. Mary-le-Bow, St. Bride’s, and Westminster, the discourses defend the Hanoverian settlement, warn against popery, and call for national peace and charitable institutions under civic leadership. Across sermons, biblical exempla (Moses, the Good Samaritan) and references to Parliament, the Lord Mayor, the Church of England, charitable societies, and debtor-prison laws frame arguments for reform, social welfare, and the humane use of law. The collection treats charity, labor, debtors, education, and the duties of rulers and citizens, advocating a harmonious church–state settlement and a robust Christian ethics geared to public life. Its aim is to harmonize faith with patriotism, urging practical acts of mercy, prudent governance, and unity under God and king.
