Serious Hours of a Young Lady - Charles Sainte-Foi - Bog

""Serious Hours of a Young Lady"" is a book written by Charles Sainte-Foi. It is a collection of letters written by a young lady to her friend, in which she discusses her struggles with faith, love, and the challenges of growing up. The letters are written in a thoughtful and introspective tone, and cover a variety of topics including the importance of prayer, the difficulties of maintaining a virtuous life, and the challenges of dealing with romantic relationships. The book is a reflection on the challenges faced by young women in the 19th century, and offers insights into the spiritual and emotional struggles that many young people face today. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking guidance and inspiration on their own spiritual journey.The greater part of Christian nations owe to the prayers and examples of some holy woman, some pious queen, for instance, the gifts of Christianity and civilization--in this regard France has been, among all nations, singularly fortunate, and the name of Clotilda shall forever be revered in the pages of its history; while on the other hand, woman has often been instrumental in depriving the church of a kingdom, and in plunging into darkness and error a long succession of generations. For instances of this we have only to recall the names of Anne Boleyn and her cruel daughter, queen Elizabeth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
