Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Jesus the Son of Mary, or the Doctrine of the Catholic Church Upon the Incarnation of God the Son, Vol. 1: Considered in Its Bearings Upon the Reverence Shewn by Catholics to His Blessed Mother It may seem a bold thing to offer to the English public a Work like the present, which necessarily treats of such doctrinal questions, as may, to those unused to theology, appear intricate and uninteresting. To those who look at the title of this Work with any such prepossession, it may be suggested to read the Second Part of the Work, before they enter upon the speculative portions of the Work contained in the First and Third Parts. The Incarnation is a strange and new thing upon the earth: the Second Part of this Work deals with this strange thing more as matter of fact than of theory. The other two Parts may be said to consider the principles of our Lord and King's policy in becoming incarnate, not of the stones or of the earth, but of a Woman. The ancients discussed, whether facts or principles should be put before people first; and the reader can decide for himself which of the two he should wish to enter upon before the other.

Among the different arguments for the Church, her non-rejection of dogmas once established, is one. 4. Early anticipations will not be clearly such, save to those in the Church. 5.

The Jewish division of Scripture sanctioned by our Lord 8. Presumes the existence of allegories in the historical books. 9. Jahel, and Esther, and Judith, are allegories of our great Redemptrix, 10. Who would be a Virgin, if it can be shewn that she is the promised seed. 11. 12. The context decides that the word 'seed, ' which is neuter, belongs to a female. 13.
