To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
COLENDA. QVOD. TANTVM. PIETATIS. SAPIENTIAE. ET. DOCTRINAE.
LVMEN. PEPERER1T.
1 Quoted in the address of M. Augustin Cochin to the Congress at Malines, 20th August 1863.
OF CANTERBURY I 85 of salvation more directly from popes and monks, and none, alas ! so soon and so cruelly betrayed them.
Nothing could be more sad and sombre than the state of the Church at the epoch when Gregory resolved to put his project into execution. This great man — by turns soldier, general, statesman, administrator, ...and legislator, but always, and before all, pontiff and apostle — had need of more than human boldness to take in hand distant conquests, surrounded as he was by perils and disasters, and at a moment when Rome, devastated by plague, famine, and the inundations of the Tiber, mercilessly taxed and shamelessly abandoned by the Byzantine emperors, was struggling against the ag- gressions of the Lombards, which became every day more menacing. 1 It is not without reason that a writer more learned than enthusiastic represents the expedition of Augustin as an act as heroic as Scipio's departure for Africa while Hannibal was at the gates of Rome.
