Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from The Life of St. Francis Xavier: Apostle of the Indies and Japan; From the Italian of D. Bartoli and J. P. Maffei Xavier shows us what one man can do, who is all for God, who has begun by sanctifying his own soul, and who then keeps within his own appointed sphere. The very sobriety of his own enthusiasm kindles his fervour rather than sti?es it. It is the characteristic of his enthusiasm to neglect no means of grace, and he finds it an especial means of grace to live in an unbelieving country. It quickens his faith it simplifies his hope it increases his charity. His zeal is being animated all day long by the sights and sounds of restless misbelief. Here is his ex ample for us in England. England is our Japan. We have to convert it. An English Catholic may well tremble to appear before the judgment-seat of Christ, who has not spent his life, up to downright self-denial, in trying to convert his country. It is the one mission given him dare he go to God without having striven to fulfil it? Alas he must go to God, whether he dare or not. Many have so gone out of the bosom of all this modern smooth ness, human respect, and self-indulgence. It is disconso late to think of them. We also must take care. They were praised in their day for not proselytizing: oh they Would give much to come back to earth, and proselytize now!
