Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memorials of Cardinal Manning Henry Edward Manning was twenty-six of age when he went from Oxford to Lavington. He took with him to this Sussex village, situated amid lovely downs, the reputation of a brilliant career at the University. Perhaps the Sussex villagers who formed his first congregation of a dozen or twenty at the little outlying hamlet at Upwaltham did not care much for such antecedents. Possibly they did not lay great stress on appearances either, and were unaware that the curate was rated by Mr. Gladstone as one of the three handsomest men of his time. But both the glory of his career and the spiritual beauty of his countenance were likely to be observed by the family of the patron of the living, Mr. John Sargent, the old Squire of Lavington. He had then an elderly son, the Rev. John Sargent, who held the family living, and who had four fair, daughters. It was as their father´s curate that Manning began his life at Lavington. The four daughters of his Rector made a remarkable group. They had been to Oxford more than once to see a brother, and Manning met them there. "In 1829," says the Rev. Thomas Mozley, "I met all the four celebrated sisters together at breakfast at Robert Wilberforce´s, and looked at them with astrong mixture of curiosity and admiration."
