WW sometimes thinks his 'Reforming Philosophy' is a hard taskmistress: 'she carries me to regions where I can hardly expect my contemporary friends to follow me - at least for a long time'. WW's task seems to him clear: 'the sermons are a small part of it, though it must I fear, be years before I can bring the connection into view' ['On the Foundation of Morals: Four Sermons Preached before the University of Cambridge', 1837]. WW tries to add clarity to his comments on conscience.
