I Have For Many Years Made It

I Have Made It A Practice For Several Years To Read The Bible Through In The Course Of Every Year. I Usually Devote To This Reading The First Hour After I Rise Every Morning. As, Including The Apocrypha, It Contains About Fourteen Hundred Chapters, And As I Meet With Occasional Interruptions, When This Reading Is For Single Days, And Sometimes For Weeks, Or Even Months, Suspended, My Rule Is To Read Five Chapters Every Morning, Which Leaves An Allowance Of About One-forth Of The Time For Such Interruptions.
