This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Abbé De Lamennais: And the Liberal Catholic Movement in France L'homme devient de plus en plus religieux. - Comte. 'Man tends to become more and more religious.' When the great French philosopher, founder of the Religion of Humanity, gave utterance to this profound thought, he had already witnessed the progress of the movement to which he owned his place in the history of human aspiration; and he did but sum up the results, so far as they were known to him, of the constructive efforts which have marked the present century, and of which his own system was the most striking example. Towards the end of the preceding period a cold blast of analytic and irreligious criticism had passed over the thinking world, leaving behind it a state of things wherein 'the soul of man had become void, and into the void had entered the seven devils of secularity.'

He insisted in speaking only Irish, even in the House of Lords, and rather than speak English to those who didn"t speak Irish, the only other language he would converse in was French.
:"I am so interested by the Ashbourne"s son, a half hatched philosopher & saint who has an article in this 19th Century & is writing on "Danton" for the next. He has the eyes of a Melanethon but the mouth & wit of a Paddy.
He was a positivist before he turned Catholic. He has the worst clothes of any philosopher I"ve metropolitan."
"I turned away, my soul was rich with sadness, And wondered thence in brooding reverie..".
