Excerpt from The Real Presence of the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ: In the Blessed Eucharist, Proved From Scripture, in Eight Lectures, Delivered in the English College, Rome The Lectures here presented to the public, are simply what the title-page describes them, a portion of the theological course several times delivered in the English College at Rome. When the Author came over to this country, he had not the remotest idea that he should feel called upon to publish them; and he brought the manuscript with him, solely for the purpose of submitting it to the judgment of a few friends, better versed, perhaps, than he could be, in the controversial literature of this country, so to satisfy himself of the propriety of publishing it at some distant period.
