Description
Excerpt from Martyrs and Saints of the First Twelve Centuries: Studies From the Lives of the Black Letter Saints of the English Calendar
The modern Roman Calendar extends much further, through the great saints of the later Middle Ages to our own times.
This extension on opposite sides into the past and towards the present is very characteristic. The ancie'nt Church of the East, conservative and steadfast, embraces in her reverent recollection those elder Apostles and Prophets on whose foundation the Christian Church acknowledges herself to be built by Him who came not to destroy but to fulfil, re cognising the continuity of the present with the earliest past of those who through faith subdued kingdoms.' On the other hand, the Latin Church, with her westward gaze and onward step, gathers into her starry crown the latest lights, scarcely yet sunk beneath our earthly horizon, recognising the identity of the first creative Inspiration with the last holy life breathed out but yesterday in our midst.
