'The Duty, Objects, And Offices Of The Love Of Our Country' is a sermon delivered by George Fothergill before the House of Commons in 1758. In this compelling discourse, Fothergill explores the multifaceted nature of patriotism, examining its duties, objects, and offices within the context of 18th-century British society. The sermon provides valuable insights into the moral and ethical considerations that underpinned civic life during a pivotal period in British history, offering a glimpse into the intersection of religious belief and political thought.
