Excerpt from Vie de Saint Fran???ois de Sales: ???v???que Et Prince de Gen???ve Le d???sir de populariser la vie de saint Fran???ois de Salesnous a inspir???la pens???e de donner en un volume in-12 un abr???g??? de la vie plus ???tendue que nous avons fait para???tre en deux volumes in Sans doute les abr???g???s ont des inconv???nients ils diminuent bien des traits d'un tableau dont la beaut??? ressort surtout de son ensemble mais aussi, par le retranchement qu'on y fait de tout ce qui surpasse un esprit moins cultiv???, ils ont l'avantage d'???tre plus ??? la port???e de toutes les intelligences, comme par la diminution du volume ils ont celui d'???tre plus accessibles ??? toutes les bourses. Sans cet abr???g???, saint Fran???ois de Sales demeurerait pour un grand nombre comme perdu dans un nuage lumineux o??? l'on sait qu'il brille d'un magnifique ???clat, mais o??? l'on ne discerne aucun trait pratique et imitable; par cet abr???g??? saint Fran???ois de Sales ira montrer jusqu'aux plus humbles classes de la soci???t??? tous les charmes de la vertu bien comprise.
