Excerpt from The Episcopate of Charles Wordsworth, Bishop of St. Andrews, Dunkeld, and Dunblane, 1853 1892: A Memoir Together With Some Materials for Forming a Judgment on the Great Questions in the Discussion of Which He Was Concerned

But, after all, the chief materials are to be found in the Bishop's printed writings, which are very numerous and full Of varied interest, although he left no great monu mental work.

I have before me a list Of some forty Charges and Synodal Addresses drawn up by himself in 1891, all Of them delivered in person, and all, except one or two, printed in some form. I do not reprint the list here, as the contents practically form part Of Appendix VII pp. 866 - 885; but it is an extraordinary record Of diligent performance Of duty. Every one Of the papers attains a high standard Of literary excellence, and, considering how persistently he pursued certain subjects, there is great variety in their treatment.
