Beschreibung
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Scattered up and down the works of the early Fathers, in the records of the lives of the Saints, and in our own Literature, there are to be found many beautiful and touching prayers. Composed in the study of the scholar, in the calm devotion of cloisteral solitude, or amidst the dust and heat of public affairs wrung from the tortured soul of the confessing penitent, or bursting from the happy lips of martyrs at the stake, these prayers of men so various and sincere have all, it seemed to me, their value, as the outpourings of faithful followers of Christ and members of His suffering or triumphant Church. Some of these, therefore, I have col lected and translated here, in the hope that they may be read and used by others not without some of the profit and interest which I have myself derived from making the collection.
