Excerpt from The Examination of Candidates for Holy Orders: A Letter to the Lord Bishop of Salisbury Bishop's addresses, and to the after consideration of them, which would be so desirable. It has been said to me by a young man, two or three years after his Ordination, that he would not on any con sideration go through such another week, for that the strain of trying at these intervals to separate his thoughts from the mere examination was almost more than he could endure. And this sort of feeling is not a passing one. Not long ago I received a letter from a total stranger, thanking me for some words written in a preface to the Life of S. Vincent de Paul, on this subject, and expressing his hope that something might result from the suggestions, so that others might be spared the retrospect on what, after a lapse of twenty years, stood out before his memory as the unsatisfactory days of his Ordina tion week.
