Among the Syrian bishops present, the first in dignity was the orthodox Eustathius, who either was, or was on the point of being made, patriarch of Antioch, the capital of Syria, the metropolis of the Eastern Church, then called the city of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Saints, Vol. 2: With a Practical Instruction on the Life of Each Saint, for Every Day in Year Come to his assistance, ye Saints of God, come forth to meet him, ye Angels of the Lord, receiving his soul, offer it to the Most High, he calmly closed his eyes and gave up his soul, filled with so many merits, into the hand of God, in the-year 1221, the soth of his age. He left to posterity, not only the holy Order which he founded, but the most noble example of virtue. His heart was filled with the love of God; hence he endeavored most assiduously to prevent others from offending the Divine Majesty and to move Sinners to repentance. Frequently he passed the whole night in prayer and in chastising his body, of fering it to God for the conversion of Sinners, saying that he would willingly give every drop of his blood, if by it he were able to prevent a Single sin, or to convert a Sinner. It was his wish to suffer and to give his life for the love of Christ. Humil ity made him three times refuse a bishopric. He desired noth ing but to work for the salvation of souls, to suffer and be de Spised. Towards himself he was extremely severe; he con stantly wore a rough hair-shirt, fastened around the loins with an iron chain, drawn so tightly, that it cut into the flesh. The steps of the altar or the bare boards were his bed. He scourged himself three times each night, first for his own' sins; secondly for the Sins of other men; and thirdly, for the souls in purgai tory. His life was, besides, a continual fast. He never tasted meat; To live on alms and to aid the poor was all he desired. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saints and Sinners, Vol. 2 of 2: Or, in Church and About It In those old days an abbot was a princely person, especially reverenced, and scrupulously obeyed. When he passed by, all inferior brethren rose and saluted their chief. At night it was no less a person than his own chaplain who carried the lantern before him No one could walk by his side except to mass, and no man ever dared sit by the side of a lord abbot without in vitation, except a Soverfign prince; and he who was invited to Sit near him first bowed lowly, and then took his seat with the air of a man who thought the honour far beyond his merits. Whoever presented any object to the abbot, or received from him any thing, always kissed his hand. In short, no king had more courteous allegiance paid him than a lord abbot in a great monastery. If an archbishop now were to order his chaplain to carry a lantern before him, the good man would be amazed, but an abbot's chaplain would have kissed his lord's hand and have ushered him with pride as being, or rather as bearing, a light upon his path.

This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Vol. 2: 1836-1844 The reception that Volume 1 of the Church History met from the members of the church and their friends greatly encouraged the Board of Publication to urge forward the second volume. The work of selection, compilation, and arrangement was continued diligently, Apostle Heman C. Smith giving faith ful attention to this part of the work, aided at separate stages by the committee of examination and revision. The second volume covers the difficult period between 1836 and the death of the presidents and martyrs, Joseph and Hyrum Smith, in 1844. It was found so impracticable with the original design of furnishing an authentic and reliable history, and complete it in two volumes, that the Board decided it to be better to do the work thoroughly, though it should require a third volume to make it what the completed work should be. It is in this spirit and intention that the Board takes pleasure in placing in the hands of its patrons Volume 2 of the Church History.
