Brownsons Quarterly Review Volume 1 PDF Download

Excerpt from Brownson's Quarterly Review, Vol. 1 The Glories of Mary, by St. Alphonso di Liguorio, is a standard work on the subject of which it treats, and too well known and too highly appreciated to require, or to admit, any other notice of it at our hands than the simple announcement of its publication. The works of the saints are to be read and meditated, not criticized, and whoever finds himself unable to relish The Glories of Mary must accuse himself, not the author. The edition before us is a new translation of the unabridged work of the Saint, from the Italian, by an estimable lady of New York, like ourselves a convert from unitarianism, and has been executed at the suggestion, and under the supervision, of the children of St. Alphonsus established in this country. The translator has, we doubt not, found in the performance of her pious labor an ample reward, for Out Lady never fails to obtain rich graces for those who devote themselves to her service.
