Excerpt from Lord Brodie: His Life and Times, 1617-80 (With Continuation to the Revolution) An Obviously unfair use is made Of brodie's Diary when his heart-searchings and confessions before the Almighty are dealt with as the true characteristics of the man. The heart most deeply sensible of its faults and failings is not usually the farthest from grace.
