What you see before you is a facsimile – not in the usual sense as a scanned copy, per se – but a near copy of the original, a best effort re-creation of the 1734 printing. Retyped, as close as I could reproduce in the format and style of the original that I personally own.

My original intention was to reproduce a highly functional Kindle version of the Officia Pietatis Christianæ erga Deum – or in English, The Duty of Pious Christians Toward God for my private, personal use. I wanted to have access to its prayers & meditations, et cetera in the event that this wonderful, pious book was physically not at hand. Of all the books that I own, and I have quite a large number (in the thousands), this is by far my most treasured. If I was ever forced to sell all my possessions, I would never sell this, even if I was starving.
