The Barony of the Rose: A Historical Monograph (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Barony of the Rose: A Historical Monograph

The glorious opportunity of Nazareth passed into the hands of another religious denomination, one which'has furnished perhaps the most picturesque pages of Protestant church history, reaching its pres ent simplicity through a strangely interesting exhibition of Protestant monastic orders. It has had its exultant martyrs. Its existence has been much pruned but triumphant. It has striven through all its course for personal sanctity, not through physical suffering, but through the most ingenious devices for peaceful and comfortable liv ing. As a fading text in brilliant binding, the sunny little town of Nazareth still offers the church's old forms of worship and landmarks of its institutions.
