Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ritualism by the Right Hon. W. Ewart Gladstone, M. P: Examined; The Anti-Catholic Charges Answered The following paper is the embodiment of two lectures, delivered after Sundays Vespers in the church of the Fathers of Charity, on the 11th and 18th October. It seems, therefore, pre-eminently a work of charity, at the present moment, to remove misconception and to communicate correct information to the public at large, upon what has become the salient topic of the day. The writer aspires to no higher privilege than to be, in his own sphere, the humble mouthpiece of the doctrine and discipline of the Holy, Ancient, Roman Church, as well as to parry the attacks which, either from ignorance or malevolence, are constantly aimed against the impregnable citadel of Eternal Truth. Clarence Gardens, Regent´s Park. Feast of St. Peter of Alcantara, October 19, 1874. Ritualism. The Contemporary Review for this month of October, with truth, it may be said, has disturbed the public mind from its propriety. An article, on the question of the day, of surpassing literary excellence, but unfortunately blurred with certain exceptional blemishes, has appeared in its pages. It has proceeded from the graceful pen of a most distinguished statesman, who has surprised his readers with the novelty of his views, and his unlooked-for attacks. We hope to approach the consideration of the subject with all candour, and with the calm dignity which conscious innocence must ever inspire. Before, however, entering upon our Ritualistic Review, permit me to indulge in a little personal episode. The reference should attune the most ruffled feelings if disturbed, because the word "Pax" - Peace - is the hallowed motto of St. Benedict, which we must adopt in our politico-polemical conflict, since it is genial to ourselves, and because it is stamped upon all his glorious institutes. But we are all tranquil here in this temple of religion. Well, upon last Sunday it fell to my lot to officiate in a very beautiful Benedictine Abbey in a picturesque locality, East Bergholt, Suffolk. The position is all that could be desired for solitude, with wood and water, and the grounds charmingly undulating.
