Hannah More (1745–1833) was an English poet, playwright, religious writer, social reformer, and anti-slavery activist. More wrote her first play in 1762 and continued to write poetry, plays, and tracts, which in her later years became more evangelical. This document contains some lines of text written in More’s hand. In Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert’s Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895), these lines are attributed to Hannah More as a quote. In it, she states, “He who cannot find time to consult his Bible, must find time to be sick. He who has no time to pray, must find time to die.”
