Excerpt from Per Crucem Ad Lucem, Vol. 2 of 2: The Result of a Life The present volume may be said to contain a further carrying out of the principles and facts which up the first volume. I have put together five articles written in the years 1850-52, in which the subjects treated seem to me to be on the one hand of permanent interest, and on the other to have a close and less close real connection. In the first is given the testimony borne by Grotius and by Leibnitz, two of the most powerful minds which have appeared outside the Catholic Church during the three centuries following the schism, to the truth of the most important doctrines attacked by the Reformers in the sixteenth century, and rejected in the Articles of the Church of England. The second describes the action of the Church of England in the work of educating her ministers from 1559 to 1850: and three centuries suffice to test the nature of an institution. The third delineates the Christian and the un-Christian scheme of education on occasion of the proposed foundation of a Catholic university. The fourth exhibits the relation between Church and State established in England at the Reformation, and may be considered a corroboration of the argument used in the Introduction to the first volume, and of that set forth in the first treatise on the Royal Supremacy. The fifth points at the contrast between the Catholic and the Protestant conception and realization of missionary work as exhibited in India.
