A collection of religious essays and poetry written in the late 19th century. The volume reflects Stowe's deep religious sentiments and explores themes related to Christianity, weaving in biblical references and spiritual meditations. Throughout the text, Stowe offers insights into the life of Christ and the significance of his teachings, aiming to inspire faith and devotion. The opening of this work begins with an introductory note that emphasizes the author's lifelong dedication to expressing her religious beliefs through her writing. Stowe highlights her desire to retreat to the “citadel” of faith amidst societal skepticism and discusses her journey to capture the essence of Christ through her reflections and poems. The first section, “Footsteps of the Master,” sets the stage for exploring Christ’s reverberations through the Old Testament, showcasing his divine pre-existence and highlighting key elements of his character and ministry. Through a series of meditations centered on the life of Jesus, Stowe aims to deepen the reader’s understanding of his role as a loving savior and guide.
