Excerpt from A Companion to the Lectionary: Being a Commentary on the Proper Lessons for the Sundays and Holy Days
With Hezekiah there was a change of policy. He was one of the best of the kings, the only one who came up to the model of David. The King of Assyria destroyed the kingdom of Israel in the fourth year of Hezekiah's reign, but Hezekiah, trusting in the lord God of Israel, had the courage to break away from the tyranny of Assyria, and recovered his supremacy over the Philistines. To punish him the King of Assyria invaded his land, and we have an account of this invasion full of interest in the Lessons for the 1sth Sunday after Trinity. They will be considered at length in their place, meanwhile we need only remind the reader that this invasion was destroyed by an awful visitation. The angel of the Lord went forth in the night into the camp of the Assyrians, and slew a hundred fourscore and five thousand. This great event, and also the recovery of Heze kiah from grievous sickness, are recorded in the same words both in the Book of Kings and in the Book of Isaiah. And here the public life of Isaiah ends. There is no event recorded afterwards in which he is mentioned as taking part 1.

Excerpt from A Companion to the Lectionary: Being a Commentary on the Proper Lessons for the Sundays and Holy Days
On Easter Monday of this year, while on my way to an early celebration of the Holy Communion, I was composing in my mind the acknowledgment which I have just made. The words which I have here written were framed then. In common with so many others, I had been made very anxious by the accounts of Maurice's health, but the news of the previous day had brought better hope. Yet, I know not why, I thought of him continually during the Holy Service which followed, and throughout the day. The next morning I learned that even whilst I was on my way to those holy mysteries, pledges of Life Everlasting, my dear friend had passed through the gate.
Praying that, with him, I may at the last be partaker of our father's heavenly kingdom, I also beseech the blessing of God upon those friends through whom I came to know Maurice so fully, Samuel Clark, Derwent Coleridge, Edward Plumptre.
The reader, I am sure, will pardon an expression of personal gratitude which I have long sought to utter. Having done so, I take leave of a work which has interested me deeply, and commend it to the judgment of my readers, in the assurance that it will prove useful to them or not, according as it shall lead them to love the Word of God and to seek therein for deeper and fuller knowledge of Christ.
