Memories of a Sister of S. Saviour's Priory. E-book. Formato PDF Father Stanton   -  Forgotten Books, 2017  - 

On the slopes that lie towards the setting sun many beautiful flowers are gathered that are to be found nowhere else, and for those who are watching the westering of the day towards the evening of life, there is no contemplation more pleasant than gathering together the memories of men and things gone by, "portions and parcels of the past," and holding them in reverend review.And if pleasant, most assuredly it is profitable, for not only does it strengthen the cords of the mind, but also it makes the old heart beat again, as it did of yore, when it was young. For life is one and indivisible, and we live again in those who are gone before, and they in us."He is not dead whose life raises thine on high:To live in those we leave behind is not to die."And if they live in us, do not we live and live again in them now, as our hope is we shall live with them hereafter?
