Translated into English Verse.
LONDON:
BERNARD QUARITCH,
CASTLE STREET, LEICESTER SQUARE.
1859.
I know of no writings which combine, as Cardinal Newman's do, so penetrating an insight into the realities of the human world around us in all its details, with so unwavering an inwardness of standard in estimating and judging that world; so steady a knowledge of the true vanity of human life with so steady a love for that which is not vanity or vexation of spirit.
Hutton
