Excerpt from Meditations and Devotions of the Late Cardinal Newman The Papers by the late Cardinal Newman contained in this collection were likely, most of them, to have formed part of what he proposed to call a "Year-Book of Devotion" for reading and meditation according to the Seasons and the Feasts of the year. The intention of composing such a book had been in the Cardinal's mind as far back as the early years of his Catholic life, but, though it was never abandoned, various circumstances hindered him from pursuing it, and no portion of this volume was put together with this idea. The book would have varied greatly in the matter of its subjects and in their treatment. For instance, some papers on the Notes of the Church would have formed one subject; of these, excepting some mere preparatory fragments, nothing was written. Again, some sermons would also have formed a part of the readings. A scheme, drawn out by him, of Litanies to run through the whole year shows what he had thought of in that respect, though only the few here printed were put together by him. "The Sayings of the Saints of the Desert" would have been extended over the whole year instead of covering only the few months for which he had prepared them.
