by A. Father Of the Dominican Order (Author)

Chapter: I 4 II 15 III 20 IV 29 V 39 VI 48 VII 52 VIII 61 IX 71 X 79 XI 84 XII 88 XIII 96 XIV 106 XV 118 XVI 121 XVII 137 XVIII 148 XIX 159 THE Order of Friar Preachers, founded by Saint Dominic, has drawn recruits from every condition in life. It has attracted to itself young men and maidens, innocent in virginal purity, taught the secrets of penance to thousands of sinners, has drawn into its ranks the learned, who dedicated: their science to the service of God and the ignorant who, desirous of rising to degrees of sanctity, otherwise unattainable, donned the black Scapular of the lay brother, and spent their lives ministering to the bodily and temporal wants of the more learned of the brethren of the Order. And in return, this holy Order, instead of hiding the learning and holiness of its members in an impenetrable seclusion, has given to the world many remarkable examples of science, as well as holiness, in almost every sphere of life. The names of the eminent architects and painters of the Order of Saint Dominic dwell in the memory of every student of history. Philosophers and theologians are as numerous in its annals as the stars in the heavens. Thousands of missionaries have spread the glad tidings of Christ in all lands and to all peoples. Martyrs innumerable have watered the soil with their heart's blood. Where is the land which has not seen the white-robed Dominican searching for souls? And where the country in which they have not died for the faith? How many holy Bishops have been forced from their beloved monasteries by the voice of the Church, which has pressed the mitre on their unwilling brows, as reward for their zeal and learning. And the sons of Saint Dominic have been placed by God on the highest throne in the world, the Chair of Saint Peter. Four Popes have shed lustre on the Dominican Order, while they ruled the Church of God in justice and holiness: Peter of Tarentasia, under the title of Innocent 5th, called Blessed by the annalists of the Order, Nicolas Boccasini, known as Benedict 11th, declared Blessed by the Church, Benedict 13th, a member of the princely family of the Orsini, and Michael Ghislieri, known as Saint Pius the Fifth. The latter was undoubtedly the most remarkable. This great Saint shows us an example of virtues suited for several states of life. He had the austerity of an anchorite, the burning zeal of an apostle, prudential governing powers of a faithful Christian Bishop, the learning of a Cardinal, and that combination of virtues and natural qualities necessary to make him a great and holy Pope. As a Bishop, he never ceased to be a religious. Clothed in the purple of the Roman Cardinalate, he did penance so severe that his rank might be no snare for the humility of his soul; with the tiara on his brow he was as humble as when a novice in his monastery, and yet as bold as a lion when the honor and glory of God called him to defend the Church.
