Text Appearing Before Image:
I tell vou,that from the English channel to the shores of the Mediter-ranean sea, in every part of France, and Spain, and Portugal,are monuments left by the Church ? Xeed I speak of Italy,the home of the fine arts, the land of architecture, of sculp-ture and of painting, fostered and encouraged by the Pfrom the time that Peter came from Antioeh, encouraged bythat long line of Popes, that royal house of Peter, beforewhich all the kings and princes and royal houses of theworld are as of yesterday ?
