Pisk “ For the Son of Man with all his Holy Angels, cording te his works.” onar., 27TH VERSE, all come in the glory of his Father, ind shall render to every man ac —St. Matthew's Gosren, 16rm In my lecture on last Sunday night, I quoted at jeast six unequivocal and indisputable texts of Scripture bearing upen the doctrine of Purgatory, which is the subject or which I have been last treating. Let it not be said that these six texts of the Sacred Scriptures prove nothing with regard to this dogma, because I certainly have every possible right, by my own private understanding of Scrip- ture—if I think proper—to prove the doctrine of Purgatory from the texts in question; and no teader of the Bible—no stickler for the universal perusal of the Scripwures without note or com- ment—can presume to call my right on this subject in question ; because, by so doing, he would not only intrench on my privileges, but also act in hostility to one of the very first princi- ples of Protestantism, whiclr says wegare to search the Scriptures for ourselves, and discover according to the best of our understandings, and our own interpretation, what they teach and what they do not teach. When our blessed Lord de- clared in the text which I have just read at the commencement of this discourse, that he would render unto every man according to his works, it is evident, therefore, that when every man is sum- moned before the judgment seat of God, immedi- ately after death, he will have the sentence inflict- ed upon him “according to his works,” for ‘*God will render to every man according to his works.” Now, there are perfect works—there are imperfect works—and there are works perfectly evil. God will, therefore, judge of all these three characters of works. If your works, when summoned to ap- pear before the supreme tribunal,be perfectly good, then will God render unto you your perfect re- ward, in remuneration of those good works. If on appearing before him, your works should ap- pear perfectly evil, then will the sentence of eter- nal punishment be pronounced upon you,in conse- quence of these evil works. But if your works be but imperfectly good—or, not perfectly evil, and in this condition you sheen betore the Supreme Judge—then must you be judged accordingly. Then there is, as it were, an intermediate judg- ment; and it would appear from this text that there likewise must be an intermediate place of atonement, where works not perfectly good, nor perfectly evil may be expiated. But that place cannot be in hell, nor can that place be heaven; consequently, as “*Godshall render unto every man according to his works’’—there must be an inter- mediate place of expiation—which place, in the language of the church, we style Purgatory; and this doctrine is not merely held by me as my own, but held in perfect conformity with the doc- trines held by some of the most venerable fathers of the primitive church. Among others,I will quote from St. Augustine in an auswer he wrote toa Ro- man Senator named Larentius, who had proposed certain questions to him. He says, ‘* We cannot but believe that the souls of the departed shall be solaced by the piety of their neighbors, when they offer for them the sacrifice of mediators and distri- bute fof them masses in church ; but we should re- member ‘that these things are profitable only to those who have lived in such a manner as net tc render themselves unworthy of profiting by them; far there is no manner of life so good as not to stand in need of them after death—nor so evil as not to profit by them,” &c. Thuisis the language of St. Augustine, in which he corroborates my exposi- tion of the doctrine in question, when I say there are different kinds of works—that is to say, works pores good, works perfectly evil, and others b tween these two kinds, and which must be punish- ed by an intermediate judgment. In quoting, on a previous occasion, the text from St. Matthew, 12th ehap , 32d verse, where it says that the sin against the Holy Ghost cunnot be forgiven in this world nor in the world to come, I argued that as this par- ticular sin could not be forgiven iu this world nor in the world to come, there are sins which can be forgiven in this world as wellas in the world to come, and added in proof ot this the authority of some of the most ancient fathers ef the Church in primitive times, who have interpreted these texts precisely asI have done. Amongst others, for instance, St. Augustine in the 21st book of his work on “ the City of God;” St. Gregory, in the 4th book of discipline, cap. 39; St. Bernard, in the 66th homily on the Song ot Solomon; the venerable and learned Bede; all these venera- ble fathers of the church have given to the texts the sane meaning, and deduced from it as I have done, the doctrine of Purgatory. Likewise the other text found in $t. Luke, 12 cap. 59th verse, where it is said that there isa prison out of which those who are indebted will not be permit. ted to pass until they pay the last mite—this text 1 say, is interpreted as I have done, and quoted in vindication of the doctrine of Purgatory by St. Cyril, Tertullian, Ongen, and other most ancient and venerable fathers of the ancient church. St. Cyril, 4th book of Epistles, says, “ it is one thing to wait for pardon, it is another thing to arrive im- mediately in glory; it is one thing not to go forth from the prison until we have paid the last farthing, and it 1s another thing to receive our recompense tor our faith and virtue; it is one thing to suffer long torments from fire, it is another thing to be offered pure, &c.” This is St. Cyril’s interpreta- tion of that verse inSt. Luke which I have just re- ferred to, relating to that prison out of which we cannot pass without paying the very last farthing. Now, if it be said that the authority of these fathers is not decisive—that they speak merely their own sentiments, and cannot pass with us for authority at the present day—I will merely make this re- mark: Suppose it were possible that the fathers whom I have quoted—St. Cyril in the third century, St. Ambroge in the 4th century, Tertullian in the third century, and all the other illustrious fathers of the primitive church—sup: pose they were now present, convened in council before us; and if there be a controversy with re gard to the doctrine of Purgatory,which could not be decided by the sacred Scriptures, suppose | should ask St. Cyprian if he believed in it, and he should answer yes—suppose I asked St. Ambrose, and he should answer in the same manner, and so on with all these illustrious names; woul it not be sufficient authority for me, or for any Catholic of the present day, to establish the doctrine of Pur- gatory, when he Finds it in conformity to the be- lief of these niet thorities, and practised and believed by al! Christiang in the primitive and pre- sent ages of Christianity. In order to convince you of the authority of the ancient fathers in the esti- mation of the reformers themselves, hear the lan- qenas oF Martin Luther, who, in the 6th volume of the Wertemberg edition of his works, in speakin; ot the authority of these great fathers to whi have referred in my preceding lectures, s “These Papists urge us every day gh argument, ‘do you believe that these fathers have erred?—It is hard to say that such men as Ambrose, Augus- tine,and all those great personages, whose memories we cherish and whose piety we admire, should have erred.” This is the language of ‘Luther,who in another mood, declared that the testimony of these fathers was not worth a straw. But as I be- fore remarked, I do not bring forward as deciding the controversy on their own authority, but as evi- dence of the general belief of all Christians of those times; because what they assert as doctrines of faith, Mpa assert to have existed and to be believed by all Christians in the period in which they flourished. Let us now see whether we can find the doctrine of in the various liturgies of the Oriental Chure! of those churches many of which have long since separated from the See of Rome. Let us examine whether these Orientals have retained the doctrine of Purgatory, and incorporated it in their liturgies and believe it in the present day as transmitted from the Apostolic times. And ii we find that these various communionsare still maintaining this doc- trine, then we have the testimony of the millions upon millions of the Catholics of the present day, as well of our ancestors up to the Apostolic tim added to the concurring testimony of those to vs on many other doctrines, in favor of the dog ma of Purgatory. The liturgy of the Nestorians of Malabar says: ‘* Let us be mindful of our fathers and brethren, and of the faithful who are departed out of this world in the Orihodox faith—let the Lord to absolve thei, to remit their their transgressions, to make them worthy to par- take of eternal felicity, with the ed themselves to the divine will.” The liturgy of the Chaldean Nestorians: ‘ Receive this oblation, O my God, for a!l those who weep, who are sick, who suffer under oppression, calamities, and infir- mities ; and forall those whom death has separated from us” Here, then, we have the testimony of the Chaldean Nestorians in favor of the practice of praying for the dead ; we have them incorporating it in their liturgy, and [ will here remark that the Rev. Horatio Southgate,in histravels in Mesopota- mia, is compelled to admit that the best informed among the Chaldean Nestorians in that coun- try, believe in Purgatory, and pray for the dead. @ Armenians when they celebrate for a soul departed say :—“Remember, O Lord! be mereiful and propitious ¢o the souls of the deud, and in particular to those for whom we offer this Koly sacritice’—thus Proving that they believe in the doctrine of Purgatory. the Greeks of the patriarchate ot Constantinople have used, for more than eleven hundred years, two liturgies, under the names of St. Basil and St Chrysostom, which contain the following recommendation of the dead: “We offer thee also for the repose and the remission of the soul of thy servant departed, in a place of light, from which grief and lamentation are far removed ; and make him to rest where he may sev around him the light of thy coun- tenance.” ‘Thus these Greeks likewise, in the solemn ser- vice ofreliglon, pray forthe dead, believing in thedoctrine of Purgatory ; and this liturgy. is followed, not only b the Greek ‘Churches ef the Ottoman empire, which are dependent upon the Patriarchite of Constantinople, but, also, by those in the west, at Rome, in Calabria, Apulia, G Mingrelia, Bulgaria, ond the whole ol e just who conform- irthodox confession of the Russians, death, cannot obtain salvation and remission of their si by their repentance, or any act on their part ; but by the ‘ood works and prayers of the faithful, and above all, by the unbloody sacrifice which the church offers daily for the living and dead.” The titurgy of Alexandria, or of the Jacobite Cophts, makes a commemoration of the dead tellows :—"Be mindful, also, O Lord! of ali who have slept and reposed in the priesthood, and in every rank of the secular state. Vouchsafe,O Lord! to grant rest to the souls of them all, in the bosom of the saints, Abraham, Isaac ib,” &e. The liturgy of the Abyssinians or Ethiopiens:—“Have mercy,O my God! on the souls of thy servants,men and women,who have been fed with thy bo- Jy and blood,and have slept at death in thy uy urey of the OrthodoxSyrians and Jacobite: gain and gain we commemorate all the faithful departec—those who are departed in the true faith from this holy altar, and from this town, and from every country—those who in the true faith have slept and are come to thee, the God ind Lord of spirits, and of all fiesh. We pray, we be- seech, we entreat Christ our God, who has taken their souls and spirits to himself, that through the innumerable acts of his mercy, he would render them worthy to re- ceive pardon of their effences, and the remission of their sins, and would bring us and them to his kingdom ia heaven. Wherefore, let us cry aloud, and say three Kyrie-eleison.” In the ancient liturgy ‘known by the aame of St. James, and explained in the fourth eentury by Bt. Cyril, of Jerusalem, the priest prays thus for the “"Q Lord our God, be mindful of all the souls whom we have commemorated, and those whom we have omitted to commemorate, of all those who have departed in the true faith, from Abel the just, till the present time,” &o.” St. Cyril in his Mystiological Catechi written =xpressly for the instruction of those who wer from Paganism, in which he tells them cxplici‘ly and clearly as he possibly those doctrines of the faith hey were to hold, says:—‘ When we celebrate the sa- crifice, we pray in the last place for those who a ed from among us, considering that their ive great assistance from the tremendous sacrifice of our altars.” Thus, therefore, St. Cyril, in teaching those whom he was appointed to instruct, taught them the doc- trines of that Church, of which he was an authorized and ordained minister. But St. tought them Parga- tory, as we evidentiy find from his explaining to them the above liturgy; therefore it must have been taught by the whole Church, and believed as a doctrine of faith by all Christians of his time. In the Mozarabic liturgy in Spa- aish we read—" Assemble in the cemeteries; read there ° the sacred books; sing there psalms forthe mi rs, for all the saints, and for your brethren who are di in the Lord, and afterwards over the Eucharist.” Thus we find that all the liturgies of the whole universal churches, whether connected with the See of Rome or not, have incorporated into them the doctrine of praying for the dead, and consequently that of Purgatory. Now the question arises—-did these Oriental Churches receive this doctrine before they separated from the Catholic Church, or did they adopt it alter their secession? Now it is not to be supposed that after their separation from the See of Roms they would have adopted the doctrine of Pargatory, if they had not adopted it before they seceded Phen, they must have taken it from the church from which they separated ; then, it must have existed before his secession ; then, that doctine, until we find the age in whichit was first promulgated, or the individual who was the first to propagate the imposition—we must be- lieve as bracing up to the earliest ages of Christinity, to the very days ofthe Apostles—to the times of the Jews who were the people of God, before the suppression of the Synagegue. These arguments were so irresist able, and these authorities 20 insuperable to the mind of the late excellent and learned Bishop Herbert, that he was compelled to admit what he styles “Papal Purgatory,” or driven to the necessity of believing in an intermediate state, where the souls of the just, as well as the unjust, were detained uatil the day of judgment; and rather than adopt Pargatory,, he was compelled to advanee this theory, end not only adopt, but insist upon it asan essential yon of beliet in the Protestant Episcopal church. I bold in my hand a “ Dissertation on the State of Departed Spirits,” by Bishop H., in which he proposes to show that this intermediate state is the belief of the Church of England, that it can be traced to the Apostolic age, and thirdly that it is authorized and vin- licated holy Scripture. Recollect that this is stated, upon the authority of Bishop Herbert. as a ne- cessary doctrine of the Church of England—that men do aot go to hell nor to heaven, after death, but to a third place, where the departed remain until the Jast day.— Now, he says, this doctrine can be traced up to the Apos- tlic times. Now this must be by tradition—therefore ve must cite the fathers of the Church; and accordiogly, on looking over the volumes which they have left pos- terity, Ido not find a single testimony of these venerable authorities, which by apy construction, could goto es- tablish this theory. On the contrary, all’ the authorities [have quoted in the whole course of’ my preceding lec- tures, are so lear, s0 evident, as to overthrow this theory of that excellent prelate of the Church of England. He says it is in conformity with the Sacred Scriptures—but to my mind it is in direct contradiction to them. In the 7th chapter and 9th verse of the Apocaly se, where St. Jobn sees heaven opened before his face, he says, ‘After this I beheld, and Jo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the lamb, clothed with white robes, and palm in their hands; &c. Consequently, as St. John places this greet multi- tude of the departed, who had “washed their robes and made them white in the bloed of the Lamb,” in heaven, there was no intermediate place for them. They were then before the Lamb,and before His throne, with the holy , and therefore not in that imaginary place,which is styled an intermediate place by this author. were in heaven; they had already entered into their reward— into that bliscful region where they can forever enjoy the presence of their God. Frem this text it would appear that the just are immediately admitted into heaven; there- fore, the theory of au intermediate place is manifestly in contradiction to the sacred Scriptures the wicked, you mi where it With regard to refer to Luke, 2 chapter, 19 verse, written that “ There wa# a certain rich man i fared sump- ertain beggar named full of sores, and de- fed with the crumbs which fell trom the rich moresver, the dogs came and licked ‘And it came to pass that’ the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abra ham’s bosom; the rich man 30 «died and was buried, and in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in tor- ments, and seeth Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bo- som. And he cried and d. ther Abraham, have merey on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am tor- mented in this flame. But Abraham said, son, remember hat thou in thy life time received thy good things, and rus evilthings; but now he is comlorted and thou art tormented. And besides all t! between us and you there isa great gulph fixed; so t they which would pass from ce (0 you Cannot; neither can they pags to us that would come from thence.” If spirits could not be taken into heaven before the ascension of Christ, but into limbus patrum, which was destroyed immediately before the resurrection of Jesus Christ—so the wicked were im- ely condemned to helleven before the birth of » it; “the rich died and was buried, and in heli he lifted up_his eyes ;” and in that heli he called out to Li to bring one drop of water to cool his parchesi me, Consequently, he must have been in hell—nct in an intermediate pl Theretore it seems the doctrine of an intermediate place—as represented by no common individual, ‘asserted to be conformable with the doctrine of the ancient fathers, the primitive church, and the Holy Scriptures, is opposed to the whole ; and ail the argu- ments as adduced in vindication of his theory goto ry 6 existence serra gs but christian, Purgatory. le says this doctrine of his has not the most remote connection with the doctrine of Papal Purgatory ; then he gives a definition of what he calls Papal Purgatory— uch, by the way, is an epithet we do not submit to in Christian sense ; for it intimates that the doctrine was first introduced by seme Pope. Now, I have proved that itis a0 ancient a8 to be lost in the remoteness of antiqui- ty. [have traced it up te Judas Maccabeus—I have shawn it was believed by all the Orientals, whether sepa rated or not from the Sovereign Pontiff; and, therefore, Papal Lad edd is an improper title tor it. He Roy that the Papal doctrine is, that those who die not perfectly cles of sin go to Purgatory, and there suffer a certain indescri bable punishment till God’s justice ix satisfied, or unti) they are released by masses said for their souls. Now, this is not a proper definition. - First of all, the Catholic Church never yet decided whether there was material fire employed in this punishment or not ; nor did the Conneil of Trent ever say one word on the subject ; there fore it is not trne thet the Catholic ia bound to believe in this as an article of faith—-and so the definition given by Bishop Herbert is incorrect. Then he says that we be lieve these souls will pass free by masses—no very chari- table insinwation, as | take it—for itis not only by masses alone, which [have proved were always offered for the dead-altheugh we can benefit our brethren in Pur- gatory, by good works, alms, prayers—or if you chose, by “baptism for the «ead,” to use the age of St. Paul—or any other pious act will be beneficial to your friend, if in Purgatory, for the prayer of the just manavaileth much. Other very distinguish. ed divines, both of the Lutheran and Protestant Episcopal eeing’the strength of the arguments which the church wields in vindication of the dogmas of Pur- gatory, prove themselves more consistent than the ther whom thave just examined, and acknowledged it stead fastly established en the most indisputable and incontro- vertible evidences. In the first place, one of the most learned Lutherans, the Abbé Molanus, mekes this asser- tion—on the autbority of the illustrious Borsuet— “We are very glad to learn from M. Molsnuvs, says Bossuet, “that one portion of the Lutherans not only approves but practices this kind of pray- er (for the Mead). This is a remnant of those an- cient sentiments which we honor ia Lutheranism.” This isthe concession msde by the Lutherans. I will quote another very illustrious name in the annals of ecclesias. tical history; particularly that of the Churcs of England, Bishop Fordes, in his “ Discourse on rail And this quotation, taken from such urce, is worthy of the most particular attention of all C ns ; for the Catho- lic of the present day could not speak more effectually er vindicate more exp'icitly the dogma of Purgatory than is here done by this eminent gnd learned prelate of the Pro- testant Church, ‘These are his words, ‘ Let not the an- cient practice of praying and making oblations for the dead, received throughout the universal Church of Christ, #lmest frem the very time of the Apostles, be any more rejected by Protestents as unlawful er vain. Let them reverencethe judgment of the primitive Church, andadmit a practice strengthened by the uninterrupted rofession of so many ages ; and let them, #8 well in ic as in private, observe this rite, although not a lutely necessary, or commanded by the divine la as lawful and likewise profitable, and as alway peared by the universal Church—that PY. this meansat length a peace so earneatly desired by all learned and honest men may be restored to the christian world.” In another place he adda, ‘So we may maintain the prayers of the Church tor the souls departed, to be beneficial, and not in vain, inasmuch as that practice of the church, of praying for the dead, is derived, as Chrysostom confe: very probable, from the institution of the Apot then this important concession of this i'lt 8 Bishop, not of our community — first, that the practice of praying for the dead is ancient, beneficial, and derived from the Apostles; that it wea not in vain, but founded on the judg- ment of the primitive Church,that it is a profitable thing, although—as he will have it—not absolutely necessary; that it was practised by the universal church. There- fore, I say, What was practised by the whole primitive church is the true faith, and that which traces up to the days of the Apos‘les cannot be an error, cannot be superstition, but must be a true ond genuine doc trine of Christianity. This distinguished Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church acknowledges that St. Chrysostom bears witness that this doctrine came from the days of the apostles ; and, therefore, coming from his times, must have been taught by Jesus Christ ; and consequently, the doctrine of Purgatory, being an invention or superstitious practict revealed to the Church—held in high estimation by past ages, and one which we Catholics cherish with all our hearts and souls, as well as all our minds and intellects, at the present day, I have before me two epitaphs of two of the most illustrious members of the Church of En land, in which the doctrine of Purgatory is incorporated, and these epitaphs were written by themselves. it is the epitaph of Isaac Barrow, Blshop of St. A: “The remains of Isasc Barrow, Bishop of St. Asaph deposited in the hunds of the Lord, in the hopes of a joyful resurrection, solely by the merits of Christ. all y that pass by unto the house of the Lord, the house of prayer, pray for your fellow servant, that he may find mercy inthe day of the Lord.” Thus this illustrious Bishop called upon every individual who passed by unto the house of the Lordto offer up their supplications for the repose of his departed spirit, t H leaving on record his high authorit; doctrine of Purgatory. Thesecond epitaph reads as fol- low: Here Tes the body of Herbert Thorndike, for- merly aprebendory of this Collegia‘e Church, (Westmin- ster) who in his life time endeavored by prayer and study to discover the right method of reforming the church. Do thou, reader, implore for him restand & happy resurrection in Christ” Thus he calls upon the reader in all after times, in years long subsequent, to re- member his departed spirit andto pray to God to have mercy on him ; and he was not a Catholic, nor under the influénce of what is styled Papal Purgatory; but he was, in admitting the efficacy of prayers for his departed spirit, and consequently Pargatory, under the influence of his own profound and discriminating intellect, and could not rejectit. Ihave before me another very interesting testi mony in behalf of this doctrine—that of the Duchess of York in the days of Charles the 2d. Her dying moments are thus described by D-. Lingard : “ Fora long time the health ofthe Duchess of York had visibly declined, and she died at St. James's in her thirty-fourth year, having been the mother of eight children, of whom only two daughters survived her, Mary and Anne, both afterwards Queens of England. She had been educated in the regu- ‘ar performance of all those devotional exercises, which were practised in the Church of England betore the civil war. She attended at the canonical paec ot eaves she publicly received the sacrament in the royal chepel on Svery holiday, and once every month; aid ehe always prepared herself for that rite by auricular confession. and the absolution of the minister. After the birth of her last child, she became still more religious, spending much of her time in her private oratory, and in conversa. tion with divines ; and for several months before ner death it was observed that she had ceased to receive the sacrament, and began to speak with ten- derness of the alleged errors of the Church of Rome.— Suspicion was excited, and her brother, Lord Carabury, in person, her father, the exiled Earl of Clarendon, by letter, endeavored to confirm her in the profession of the established doctrines. But she hed aiready been recon- ciled, iu August, to the Church of Rome, and in ber last illness received the sacrament from the hands of Hunt, @ Franciscan Friar. Blandford, Bishop of Oxford, her Pro- testant confessor, visited her on her death bed ; but the Duke informed him of her change of religion, and he con- tented himsetf with spesking to her afew words of consols- tion and advice. Her conversion was known only to five oersons; but the secret gradually transpired, and its publication served to confirm the suspicion that the Duke himself was also a Catholic. He attended, indeed, occa- sionally on the King during the service in the chapel, but two years had elapsed since he received the sacrament.” This is a short history of the last moments of the Duchess of York. But this Duchess left behind her a declaration in which she reveals the conversation she had in the ora- tory, during her sickness, with some of the greatest di- vines of the Church of England, in which she relates her doubts and their answers ; and that particularly on Pur gatory end confession she conversed with two of the most ‘istinguished divines of that day—ove, her confessor, Blandford, Bishop of Oxford, and Sheldon, Archbish~p o Canterbury, “ Who,” she says, “ both told me that there were many things in the Church of Rome, we had better kept, as confession, and praying tor the dead, of which there{could be no dcubt ; and for their parts, they did it taily, although they did not deem it proper to own it.” The Duchess practised it, and was confirmed therein by the example of the most eminent and elevated prelates of the Established Church. Would to God that all who have nad an opportunity of instructing themselves on these im- portant subjects, would not satisfy themselves with put- ting aside their prejudices, but have the courage to follow the example of the Duchess of York. Have we not, then. uvery evidence on which to found, inculcate, vindicate and establish the doctrine of Purgatory? Teke the Books of the Maccabees, whether as canonical or historical. If they are canonical, their testimo ny is so clear, that it is impossible to call it in question, and the controve at once at an end. If! take them as mere historics! books, then they are the most ancient and venerable testimony to the faci, that the Jews observed the practice of praying for the dead; that the most enlightened nd greatest hero among the ancient peeple of God in that period, ordered sacrifice to be offered in the temple for the souls of his brave soldiers, who had fa)len on the battle field by his Then, dic { not quote a large number of the testimonies of the most notable fathers of the Church in favor of the doctrine up to the Apostolic times? Did I not prove it from the testimony of the sacred Scriptures themselves ? Did not prove it from the vari- ous liturgies of those communities who had separated from the ancient church? Did I not prove it from the most illustrious and distinguished individuels, who were the lights and ornaments of the Protestant Episcopal Church? What more remains to be said or argued on the subject ? It seems to me that every ground has been exhausted have a right to appeal to tradition; | have done so, and tradition is in my favor. I have aright to appeal to the history of the Jews as the Ligh mayo! of God; that I have done, and I find them praying for the dead. I have ap- ealed to the sacred Scriptures, and claiming my right of interpretation, which I will not yield on any account,and {find that in these sacred volumes the doctrine of Parga- tory is established and taught; and if any Christion who hos followed meinthe course of this argument will not consent to go with me, let him at least acknow- ledge that the Catholic has a right to believe it, and can produce the most excellent authorities in its favor; therefore there is no longer any excuse for the hue and cry about the nensense, and superstition, and folly, of the doctrine of Pargatory. This is a doctrine which we che rish, for when a friend departs we are not eternally cepa. rated; fgr after we have watched him in bis illness, and soothed him in Jeath the Catholic religion genius of the Cetholic religion still follows in symp» thy the departed spirit; ond beseeches God still to exercise his mercy. Not so with Protestantism. The Protestant will, indeed—and perbaps often with more fervor, with more charity, and it may be with more devotion—attend to all the wants spiritual and tem. poral of the dying; but after death has set his seal, the genius of Protestantismgwithdraws jforever—forbidden to offer one prayer or utter one word to the throne cf grace, in hehaifof a brother departed into the world of spirits When the cold earth covers him, the genius of Protestant iam glides sullenly and silently away; whilst the genius of the Catholic religion send up to God, mingled with « tear, a fervent prayer to the great Judge of all, still to extend his bountiful mercy towards the soul of him who has been placed in his conse crated grave. This, then, is a doctrine we cherish with all our hearts, understandings and minds; it is « doctrine, therefor: hich we feel no disposition to fore. 10 go, Let us, then, Catholics, cherish this doctrine ; and all we cat k of those not of our religion ia, that they shall at least acknowledge that in believing this doctrine the Catkolic is not blinded by ignorance, superstition, or prejudice, but animated by authorities, sustained by argu. ments, corroborated by evidences, which are of the high- est and mostconvincing character.
