Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Instructive and Curious Epistles, From Catholic Clergymen of the Society of Jesus
They did not meet them in the prisonnships of Turkey, nor in the Baguio of the grand'signior when the spirit of the pestilence breathed his samiel breath upon those dens of misery, and the serene children of Ignatius encountered the pest with calm imperturbability, like those gigantic oaks that groan amid the storm, but defy its violence, when rearing and horrent forests are strewn upon the earth by the whirlwind around them.
Talk they of morals, oh thou bleeding love, The true morality is love of thee.
