Description
Excerpt from Life of Saint John Francis Regis: Of the Society of Jesus
It is the aim of this biography to tell in a simple and straightforward way the true story of what manner of man Saint John Francis Regis really was. The so-called ultra-pious method has been avoided, - yet, on the other hand, the idea of some recent writers, who seem to delight in emphasizing the human failings of the saints, is considered a more serious fault than over-idealization, and so finds no place in this book.
