Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Church and Court of Rome, Vol. 1 of 2: From the Establishment of Christianity Under Constantine to the Present Time There is nothing, says an able writer, in the history of the whole world, more extraordinary than the various events connected with the name and the territory of Rome. The first studies of our youth acquaint us with the valiant deeds and self-devotion of Roman heroes and patriots, the magic influence of Roman eloquence, the splendid victories of Roman armies, the profound policy of Roman senates, and the almost boundless dominion of Roman Emperors: and such is their impression that every thing patient in endurance, mighty in operation, brilliant in success, and wise in counsel, becomes, in our feelings, identified with that which is Roman.
