ADVERTISEMENT TO THE THIRD EDITION, ORIGINAL
WE have introduced into this Third Edition some developments which were not in the two former. We have inserted many justificatory pieces, some of which have never before been published. These pieces, and the reflections induced by them, occupy the second volume, which is divided into three parts, containing:
1. Exposition of the Maxims of the Court of Rome, since the fabrication of the False Decretals, and especially from the time of Gregory VII. to the present day:
Exposition of the Maxims of the Gallican Church, from St. Louis to the Emperor Napoleon:
Exposal of the actual conduct of Pius VII. with some observations on the effects it may produce.
