Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Flower of the Field The "Flower of the Field" is addressed primarily to the "Girl World." Young hearts are like fallow ground, rich and full of promise, but undeveloped and waiting for the sowing of the good seed. Too often, alas, are they preoccupied by the noxious growth of worldly principles! Yet, if the love of Mary can but find a lodging there, it germinates quickly, stifling all baser growths and fructifying into every virtue. Go then, my little book, and spread broadcast this good seed. And as, in the ever-recurring miracle of nature, the tiny seed transforms the dull, dead earth into all the glories of field and forest, so may the germ of Mary´s love fall into the fruitful soil of young, unsullied hearts, and develop there till they too, like Mary, become "Flowers of Nazareth." Many of the chapters are based on legends found in the Apocryphal Gospels; others are taken simply from the Gospel narrative, and from ideas suggested in meditation. The verses have been culled from the Lyra Liturgica of Canon Oakeley and the Carmina Mariana of Mr. Orby Shipley.
