Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God: With the History of the Devotion to Her, Completed by the Traditions of the East, the Writings of the Fathers, and the Private History of the Jews; Translated From the French of the Abbè Orsini
Would, says a pious and learned author who, in 17 2 2, dedicated the life of a holy personage to the Bishop of Blois; would that Catholics would give to the admirable achievements of the saints those ornaments wherewith sinners embellish their guilty passions, and thereby show that they know better how to adorn virtue than those worldlings to adorn vice.
