Four manuscript sermons composed and preached in the years 1790, 91, and 92 : Copford, 1792.

Manuscript of four sermons apparently by the non-resident rector of St. Michael and All Angels Church in Copford, Essex. Topics include the Resurrection, "Universal Good-will," the nature and extent of human perfection, and the importance of education. The sermon on education was preached on the anniversary of the founding of the local Sunday Schools; Denne argues that education will reconcile poor children to their stations in life, keep them from becoming criminals, and "clothe them in humility."
