THE PRACTICAL WORKING of THE CHURCH OF SPAIN. By the Rev. FREDERICK
MEYRICK, M.A., Fellow of Trinity College, Oxford.
"Pleasant meadows, happy peasants, all holy monks, all holy priests,
holy every body. Such charity and such unity, when every man was a
Catholic. I once believed in this Utopia myself, but when tested by
stern facts, it all melts away like dream"--_A. Welby Pugin._
"The revelations made by such writers as Mr. Meyrick in Spain and Mr.
Gladstone in Italy, have at least vindicated for the Church of England
a providential and morally defined position, mission, and purpose in
the Catholic Church."--_Morning Chronicle._
"Two valuable works ... to the truthfulness of which we are glad to add
our own testimony: one, and the most important, is Mr. Meyrick's
'Practical Working of the Church of Spain.' This is the experience--and
it is the experience of every Spanish traveller--of a thoughtful
person, as to the lamentable results of unchecked Romanism. Here is the
solid substantial fact. Spain is divided between ultra-infidelity and
what is so closely akin to actual idolatry, that it can only be
controversially, not practically, distinguished from it: and over all
hangs a lurid cloud of systematic immorality, simply frightful to
contemplate. We can offer a direct, and even personal, testimony to all
that Mr. Meyrick has to say."--_Christian Remembrancer._
"I wish to recommend it strongly."--T. K. _Arnold's Theological
Critic._
