Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gleanings From Westminster Abbey There are still some subjects omitted which might very well have been included, but they were fearful of increasing the bulk of the volume too much; and these Gleanings do not profess to be a complete history of the Abbey; they are rather intended as a supplement to other larger and more elaborate works, merely supplying in a popular form such information as is not readily accessible.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Westminster Abbey This little book does not claim to treat ex haustively of so vast a subject as the Abbey of Westminster, either from the architectural or historical point of View.

Download or read book Westminster Abbey written by Mary Sturgeon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Westminster Abbey: Its Memories and Its Message Very varied are these spiritual qualities which have come to be focused in the Abbey, and which are, in sum, the Spirit of our Race. To recall them and the Great Dead in whom they originated is a stimulus and an inspiration. But other interest gathers about them as we watch the familiar native touch upon them all, and observe that they are English not only in their merits but in their defects; and that a history of our civilization, in its weakness as well as its strength, might be read from these manifestations of the Spirit of a Nation in Westminster Abbey. Our physical history, with its origin in the union of many races, is implicit in the beginnings of Westminster. It is symbolized in the very fabric itself, where all sorts of foreign elements have been assimilated, and where the minds and hands of several nations have co-operated in labour. In the foundations of our civil life many stones were laid by the monks of this 'monastery in the West'; and thus there enters into the national spirit a vital element drawn from the Benedictine Rule. In dynastic history the close association of the Crown with the Church at Westminster is seen to take its rise in two specifically English things in the royal Founders - the warm affection which existed between the Confessor and his people, and the deep piety of Henry III.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Westminster Abbey, Vol. 2 of 3: Or the Day of the Reformation As when a cast of falcons make their flight At an Herneshaw that lies aloft on wing, The whiles they strike at him with heedless might, The warie fowl his bill doth backward wring. Spenser. Nevertheless, Prior Sanchraal was considerably changed from the time when Roodspere first beheld him. Six years had intervened, but a much longer period seemed to have cast its shadow over him. In age he had not passed the third lustre in the maturity of manhood, yet his dark locks were tinged with grey; his sinewy and bent frame was leaner still, and the dusky pallor of his complexion was deepened.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Westminster Abbey: A Short History and Description of the Church and Conventual Buildings With Notes on the Monuments Accurately to state the books on which this account of Westminster Abbey is based would necessitate the inclusion in these pages of a bibliography. Needless to say, the older works, such as those of Keepe, Dart, Widmore, Gough, Ayloffe, Ackermann, Neale and Brayley, and Harding have been frequently laid under contribution. Much valuable information has been obtained from T fie Abéey Register, edited by Colonel Chester; from Dean Stanley's Memorials; and from Gleanings from Westminster Aébey, edited by Mr. Parker. The author has likewise made use of the more recent books of Mr. Loftie, Mr. Hare, and Miss Bradley. The Dean of Westminster has most courteously helped him in a question of detail. He is greatly indebted to the numerous learned papers of Mr. J. T. Micklethwaite; and his thanks are due to Mr. Edward Bell, to has given him the benefit of his minute study of the older monu ments, and has assisted him in many other matters with valuable advice.
