Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Flowers From the Garden of the Visitation: Or, Lives of Several Religious of the Order The translation of the following pages from the "Année Sainte des Eeligieuses de la Visitation Sainte Marie" was undertaken merely as occupation for leisure hours. The idea of the publication of the above-named Annals was first conceived by the great St. Chantal, on whose feast by a fortuitous coincidence we pen these lines. Let us hope that her blessing may rest upon them! Her object was to make the Order of the Visitation better known, and, consequently, better loved. Centuries have passed into the ocean of time, the mustard seed of Annecy has taken root and flourished in every clime, thousands have been added to the list of her spiritual daughters, and yet it is only within the last few years that the Saint´s desire respecting these Annals has been realized. The increase of her Order having kept pace with time, and her children having faithfully carried out her wishes by preserving in the archives of each convent an abridgement of the lives and virtues of their deceased sisters, these writings have, at length, grown into many large volumes from which we cull the memoirs contained in this little book. The favor with which the work was received in France leads us to hope that these extracts may, perhaps, prove as acceptable as serviceable in our own country by making the religious life better known and appreciated.
