Small Sins

By Alexander Balloch Grosart

Book Overview

Small Sins is a book written by Alexander Balloch Grosart and published in 1863. The book is a collection of poems that reflect on the small sins that people commit in their daily lives. These sins are often overlooked or dismissed as insignificant, but the author argues that they have a cumulative effect on our souls and can lead to greater sins. The poems in Small Sins are written in a variety of styles, including sonnets, ballads, and free verse. They explore themes such as greed, envy, pride, and lust, and offer a moral lesson or warning to readers. Grosart's writing is characterized by its lyrical and introspective nature, as well as its use of religious imagery and language. The author draws on his own Christian beliefs to convey the importance of repentance and redemption in the face of sin. Overall, Small Sins is a thought-provoking and reflective collection of poetry that encourages readers to examine their own actions and attitudes towards sin. It offers a unique perspective on the nature of sin and its impact on our lives, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring these themes in depth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
