Title a bit dusty and smudged, scattered foxing, but good, with the small stamp of Oxford bibliographer and collector, Falconer Madan. Second edition of the printed form of this controversial sermon. Bulteel (1800-1866) "adopted High Calvinist opinions, and in 1831 gave a polemic sermon before the university in which he questioned received opinions on free will and salvation, and criticised the university and the Church of England for ignoring the principles of their faith and appointing unsuitable clergy in response to political influence. He then went on an outdoor preaching tour, and as a result was ejected from the Church of England" - Wikipedia. (Inventory #: WRCLIT81829)
