History of the Holy Eucharist in Great Britain, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Holy Eucharist in Great Britain, Vol. 2 It is evident then that, whichever of these views is embraced, a history of this rite, even a partial history, professedly restricted to one country, ought to be full of interest and instruction. If the Protestant view be correct, then it will be a history of idolatry in worship and consequent corruption in morals. If, on the other hand, the Catholic View be the true one, it will be the history of god's fidelity to His promises, His watchful providence over His Church, His gra cions dealings with men, and we shall have many a fair page to unroll of the mutual love of the Creator and of His creatures, though those pages may be defaced with some foul blots of man's ingratitude.
