Excerpt from Cardinal Manning: The Decay of Idealism in France; The Institute of France France, could be carried out at the cost of little time or trouble. A bigger miscalculation never was made. In thinking that the work would be short and easy I had in mind the courses of lectures or sermons by popular divines, which a fortnight after being reported in the journals as news, are advertised in the publishers' circulars as literature. The pious authors may have supernatural aid, not at my disposal, to speed them in the revision of their prose.
