1846 ELIHU BURRITT. Manuscript Poem on the Irresistibility of God's Power to Free the Slaves. BaptistA fine original MSs by abolitionist, Elihu Burritt [1810 1879]. This rather daring poem would be published a few months later in the November 6, 1846 issue of the Anti Slavery Bugle. In it, Burritt makes a rather bold argument, that the Divine and moral force of the right of the enslaved to be free has simply unleashed something too powerful for any government, law, or legislature to resist. God Himself is exerting himself against them. The subtext of

Charming little quarter calf with what is likely an early sepia ink spill at lower spine extending into block as shown
But now the revival was being codified into theology and practice
