Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from St. Margaret, Queen of Scotland Scotland is not over-rich in saints, or, to speak more correctly, in saints enrolled in the Universal Calendar. And the reproach is sometimes made, half humorously, that its only canonised saint among women - she whom Pope Innocent IV. raised to that honour in 1250, and whose life here follows - came from England. Reasons could easily enough be given to account for the dearth, or, at least, the obscurity, of Scottish saints. Meantime, the fact itself makes St Margaret all the more precious to us. She shines as a bright particular star. There is no Scot, whatever his creed, but is proud that his country, in the days of its independence, numbered her among its queens. The story of St Margaret of Scotland, and of what she, a most devoted child of the Catholic Church, achieved for God and her country, can never be told too often.
