The crown of thorns : a token for the sorrowing

Chapin's book of consolation, written for mourners. Through a series of meditations on sorrow, bereavement, and the ministry of suffering, he offers the grieving a God who is a father rather than a judge, and a future in which nothing loved is finally lost. Books 'for the sorrowing' were a staple of Victorian religious publishing, and this was among the most reprinted Universalist examples of the genre.
