Book Description
Excerpt from A Short Treatise on the Rosary: Together With Six Reasons for Being Devout to the Blessed Virgin; Also True Devotion to Her Father of the Church also asserts that all we may say in her praise is little in comparison with what she merits on account of her dignity as Mother of God. Our Holy Mother the Church also, in the Mass of the Divine Mother, requires these words to be read: For thou art happy, 0 Sacred Virgin Mary, and most worthy of all praise. Now, if nothing else, at least the Church ought to remove from us all fear of exaggerating the praises of Mary, inasmuch as she requires the above words to be said inthe Holy Sacrifice at the Altar. And if there be any creature in the universe most worthy of all praise, undoubtedly it is the Immaculate Mother of God. It is true, at the present time, that there are many works which treat of Devotion to the Blessed Virgin. Some of these are too voluminous and too expensive. I have therefore endeavored to make this book small, yet comprehensive, in order that every Catholic, or at least every Catholic family, might be able to procure a Copy.

Book Description
In addition Saint Francis de Sales devout method of hearing Mass has been added. Also a commentary on the Memorare and the Stations of the Cross. This work is divided into three parts. The FIRST PART embraces a short treatise on the Rosary. A great portion of tbis treatise is extracted from two small Dominican works, written in French, on the Rosary. The division of this little treatise is somewhat similar to Cardinal Lambruschini's treatise on the Immaculate Conception. The SECOND PART treats of Six Reasons for being devout to the Holy Mother of God. The THIRD PART treats of True Devotion to the Divine Mother. It is styled True Devotion to the B. Virgin, in order to distinguish true from false Devotion to her. We cannot be truly devout to her unless we desire to amend our lives, faithfully honor, and commend ourselves to her. But True Devotion to Mary will be more fully explained when we come to the THIRD PART. In this discourse there will be found quotations from some of the most learned and saintly men of almost every age of the Christian era, regarding the Immaculate Mother of God.

Book Description
Amid the present darkness and distress this little book may help to minister consolation and inspire drooping hearts with courage, by reminding them that suffering is the Church's heritage, the very condition of her well-being, nay, her highest privilege, inasmuch as it renders her most like to her Divine Spouse and is the pledge and surety of her triumphs. As of the Lord Himself (Luke 24:26), so of His Church it may be truly said that she ought to suffer these things and so to enter into her glory. Her most signal successes have been preceded, and indeed attended, by humiliations and apparent failures, and have been accomplished, like all the great designs of God, under the heavy weight of the Cross. It is not, however, of exterior trials and sufferings that the author principally treats, or of those obvious temptations to which all Christians are exposed, but of those deep interior miseries, those subtle devices of self-love, those illusions and preternatural assaults of the evil one, which, in some form or other, they must be prepared to encounter who strive to pursue the arduous paths of spiritual perfection. And if testimony were wanted to the high character and the great practical usefulness of the work, it might be sufficient to cite the words of the doctors in theology who were commissioned to examine and report upon its contents previous to its publication in the year 1671. From the terms in which their approbation is couched, it will be seen that the doctrine which the treatise enforces, as it is necessary for all times, so is particularly applicable to our own, when men who profess to represent the highest intellects of this boasted age of progress are inviting Christian people to exchange the truths of divine faith and the life-giving lessons of the Cross for the base, uncertain tenets of a sensual philosophy and of a false and godless science. " It is a book," say they, " as full of instruction for souls which desire to rise to perfection as for those whose office it is to direct them on their way. We have found in it a teaching all divine, which the light of faith alone is capable of rendering intelligible to those who read it, and which divine love alone can enable them to relish. It is a knowledge which God hides from worldlings who allow themselves to be guided by their senses, and from men of mundane policy who regulate their actions by the sole light of human reason. This science of the Cross, unhappily, is ignored, neglected, or despised by the greater part of men, comprising even a number of the learned, who, devoting all their life to the study of the speculative sciences, pay no regard to the science and the maxims of Jesus Crucified, ' in whom' nevertheless ' are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge' (Col. 2:3). It may be hoped," they add, " that the reading of this book will inspire those who peruse it with the desire of dying wholly to themselves and following Jesus Christ, seeing that it is replete with the unction of the Spirit of God."
