SynopsisExcerpt from The Life of Charles Henry V. Bogatsky His life was one peculiarly unworldly. The two grand pursuits of mankind at large, riches and pleasure, to him had no attractions. Hence, with reference to these ordinary topics of most men's lives, his biography presents a blank. But it is a blank which likens it to the life of the Saviour, and the lives of his first disciples. The pictures presented to us in the Sermon on the Mount, and in the second chapter of the Acts, are in some sort revived in such biographies as those of Bogatsky.

Bogatsky He lived, like Cowper, in com, parative obscurity, and he died poor. But here the parallel terminates. Cowper had acquired much classical learning; and much of his later life was passed in recalling these pursuits of his early years, and in correspondence on merely literary subjects. Such pursuits are unsatisfying; and the latter days of the English poet were not his happiest or best days, Bogatsky, while destitute of the genius or talent of Cowper, was free also from his mental disorder. No Satanic delusion filled his mind, teaching him that "it was unlawful for him to pray." Hence, in his case, "the path of the just was as the shining light, which shineth more and more to the perfect day." Bogatsky and Cowper were both poor. The poet, however, little fitted to take care of himself, was taken care of by his attached friends. Bogatsky, here too, was happier. He was able to rely, from first to last, on his Heavenly Fathers providential care; and this reliance never once betrayed him into want. It was not romantic. He did not expect "that these stones should be made bread." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
