Sinopsis

Excerpt from England and Rome

To try to reduce me from my allegiance to the Church of my Baptism by abusing it. Shall I say that I perused their miserable letters with contempt and abhorrence? Or was it wonder and pity and sorrow which I rather felt? A strong sense of the foolishness of the writers the miserable weakness of their position - the imbecility of their arguments, - was, I believe, the predominating sentiment with which I flung their communications from me.

Excerpt from England and Rome

These three Letters on modern Romanism, now for the first time separately published, are the concluding ones, (xxiv. xxv. xxvi.) of certain Letters from Rome, which appeared in 1862. In some of the earlier of those Letters I had spoken of the sights of Rome with such generous warmth, - had displayed so much interest as well in the Churches, the services of the modern City, as in the precious relics of early Christendom which have been disinterred from the Catacombs, or burial-places of its ancient dead, - that I discovered (to my dismay) that I was running the risk of being misunderstood in certain quarters. While some well-meaning persons remonstrated with me for having found so much to admire and to praise at Rome, others ventured to address me in quite a different strain.
