Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book About the Clergy, Vol. 2 of 2 The reader, however, would be guilty of a great error, who should imagine that our feudal ancestors were altogether devoid of the sentiment which in modern England jealously preserves our churches from profanation. The cathedrals and other important churches were usually provided with private chapels, in which masses were continually offered for the souls of departed benefactors. Each of these sacella contained an altar and the sacred adornments usual in places of worship; and whilst pride and affection inspired the founder´s descendants to protect it from decay, and to renew from time to time its artistic decorations, the ordinary frequenters of the church to which it was attached cherished for its altar the same reverence which they displayed for the high altar in the church.
