1898, Precept upon Precept by the Author of "Peep of Day", Favell Lee Mortimer, New York

Title: Precept Upon Precept: Being a Sequel to “The Peep of Day.”
Author: Favell Lee Mortimer (1802‑1878)
Publication: Various editions. The date “1898” you mentioned is not readily verified in online sources—the works appear earlier (e.g., late 19th century) and later re‑editions exist. For example one listing shows a 1913 edition. Publisher: Not fully verified for the 1898 edition. Some sources list “Ward, Lock & Co., Ltd.” for a 1913 edition.
Format / series: It belongs to her series of children’s religious instructional books (e.g., “Peep of Day”, “Line upon Line”, “Here a Little, There a Little”).

The book is designed as early religious instruction for children: simple lessons, questions, stories, biblical accounts, moral teachings. It is a “sequel” to The Peep of Day, continuing the same style of instruction and moral teaching.
The text was used in Sunday schools and by missionary/educational personnel, including translations into other languages (for example a Dakota‑language edition exists of “Precept upon Precept”).

The book is relevant for the study of 19th‑century religious education, especially in Britain (and perhaps its export abroad) and in children’s literature.
It provides insight into how religious instruction was given to young children (methods, style, vocabulary) in Victorian times.
For anyone researching Favell Lee Mortimer’s works or the “Peep of Day” series, this is one of the key titles.

The exact 1898 edition you asked about is not clearly documented in the sources I found; many sources list earlier decades or later re‑editions but not explicitly 1898.
Because many editions, reprints and translations exist, publisher/place data can vary significantly.
As with many instructional/children’s religious books of the era, the viewpoints reflect their time (Victorian Christian pedagogy, certain moral assumptions) so modern readers should consider those historical contexts.
