      FOR

      DESTITUTE ORPHANS,

      PUBLISHED BY REQUEST OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS.

      BY JONATHAN M. WAINWRIGHT, D. D.

      Rector of Trinity Church, Boston.

      Boston.

      DUTTON AND WENTWORTH, PRINTERS,

      Nos. 10 & 12, Exchange Street,

      1835.

      TO THE BOARD OF MANAGERS.

      Ladies,

      Upon your first application to me for a copy of this sermon to be printed, I respectfully declined giving it, because it was not prepared with the slightest reference to such a result, and more especially because it has been my uniform practice to abstain from appearing in this way before the public, when I could with propriety do so. To your renewed request, and the reasons you state for making it, I feel myself constrained to yield, although my own conviction in regard both to the character of the discourse itself, and to the inexpediency of such publications, except in very special cases, remains the same. If, however, its possession, as you imply, can afford gratification to any one interested in your most excellent institution, I ought not perhaps to be longer influenced by a consideration which relates merely to myself in withholding it. I therefore commit it to you, and am,

      With the greatest respect,

      Your friend and servant,

      JONA. M. WAINWRIGHT.

      BOSTON, OCTOBER 6, 1835.

      SERMON.

      PROVERBS, XXII. 9.

      He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.

      How merciful and gracious is our Heavenly Father in presenting to us his commandments, united with the promise of ample rewards to those who will obey them. As the author of our being, the creator and preserver of our means of existence, and our sources of happiness, he has an unqualified right
