GULIELMUS,
Episcopus Arindelensis,
Vicarius Generalis.
WESTMONASTERII,
Die 7 Feb., 1908.
TRANSLATOR'S NOTE
THE name of Father Valuy, S.J., is already favourably known to English readers by several translations of his works, which have a large circulation.
The following little treatise is taken from one of his works on the Religious Life, and is translated with the kind permission of the publisher, M. Emmanuel Vitte, of Lyons. The subject is so important a factor in community life that I feel confident it will supply a want hitherto felt by many.
Though specially written for religious, it cannot fail to prove beneficial to seculars in every sphere of life, as love, the sunshine of existence, is wanted everywhere.
