O knihe
Excerpt from The Life and Writings of Saint Columban: 542? 615
The distinctive characteristics Of the Irish monks Of Old, th J passion for pilgrimage and preaching, the imperious necessity, as Montalembert calls it, of spreading themselves without, of I seeking or carrying knowledge and faith afar, never died out like the grand Old faith itself, it is the characteristic of the. Irish race. In our own day hundreds of thousands of the sons and daughters of Erin leave their country to earn their bread' in honest toil abroad; and in every land under heaven, in Asia, Africa and America, in Australia and New Zealand and in the South Sea Islands, we find the Irish priest and monk and bishop converting the heathen or keeping bright the lamp of faith where it has already been lighted.
