Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vicar of Christ, or Lectures Upon the Office and Prerogatives of Our Holy Father the Pope We have also published our own dedi cation of these lectures to His Holiness, and the gracious reply which he conde scended to give. While this letter of Pius IX. Is one of the great consolations of our life, it will add a new value to our humble labor. It may be proper also to say that we never presumed to claim for our work the merit of a complete theological treatise, but only sought to present a plain and popular argument for the prerogatives of the Vicar of Christ. We venture to hope that our efforts will not be altogether with out fruit. T. S. P. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
