Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 255 Since the appearance of our last issue, the nation has loft its King. And it is fitting that Catholics should take their full share in the national mourning. English Catholics have ever prided themselves on their loyalty to the Crown, even in days when loyalty was hard - during the long persecution which accompanied the Reformation. The bulk of them always deeply resented the efforts of the party, popularly associated with Father Parsons, to lead them into treasonable intrigues. Edmund Campion, the Jesuit, was not the only Martyr who proclaimed his loyalty to Elizabeth herself on the eve of his death. Catholic soldiers and sailors fought for England against a Spanish Armada, which claimed to have the blessing of the Holy See on its enterprise. Indeed, in the famous "Letter to Mendoza," the Queen´s ministers declared that the English Catholics were as keenly opposed to the Spaniard as the Protestants themselves. Elizabeth, who passed away at the end of the 16th century, to the end had among Catholics her most loyal subjects, ready to obey her in all that conscience allowed. If Catholics lost in her a declared enemy, they never forgot that she was their Queen. Our own position in 1910 is very different. It is not too much to say that English Catholics have in Edward VII lost a true friend. As Prince of Wales, his friendship with Cardinal Manning was well known. And when they sat together on a Royal Commission, he dealt with especial friendliness and tact with the delicate question of the Cardinal´s precedence. The matter was practically a new one, for in his predecessor´s time it had not been customary for the Cardinal Archbishop to take such part in public affairs as could give occasion to challenge his precedence. When the Cardinal died in 1892, at the very time when the Princes own eldest son was cut off so prematurely, the bereaved father´s message to the Chapter of Westminster was specially warm.
