Excerpt from The Mass: What It Is Not and What It Is?
In this little pamphlet it has not been attempted to give a complete treatise on the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, neither on those things that have immediate relation to it; nor, indeed, has it been deemed necessary in a publication of such slight pretensions, to enter into detail at all. All the writer has endeavored to do is to present the reader with a cheap and an inelaborate sketch, which has no claim, even, to originality - as the subject would not admit of it - in hopes of creating a thirst for something voluminous and learned, on a subject so important, by facile pens and master minds.
