Lay Sermons

Lay Sermons is a collection of two powerful and inspiring essays by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. The first essay, The Statesman's Manual, is a call to ethical action, arguing in favor of the liberal state and the idea of progress. The second essay, Blessed Are Ye That Sow Beside All Waters, explores the relationship between knowledge and faith, and the role that both play in the human experience. With its passionate and eloquent prose, Lay Sermons is a testament to Coleridge's enduring influence on religious and political thought.
