Preface.

THESE Readings on the Ascended Life of our LORD have been arranged on a plan similar to that of the volume published two years ago under the title of "The Appearances of the Risen Lord;" and it is owing to the kindly expressed assurances that have reached me of the value of that book that I have been encouraged to put forth the present one.

Once more my thanks are due to Canon Body for the unstinted generosity with which he has allowed me to make free use of my notes of his Instructions, and once more I desire to add that he is in no way responsible for the publication of this volume.

I am indebted to the Bishop of Lichfield for allowing me to quote part of his hymn on the Holy Communion, and to the Compilers of "Hymns, Ancient and Modern," for the use of No. 316 in their Hymnal.

May GOD, of His great kindness, grant that the deeper teaching of the Ascended Life of JESUS may bring deeper blessing to the souls whom He has prepared to receive it.

Easter, 1891.
