Excerpt from The Lives of the Popes: From A. D. 100 to A. D. 1853 The present work was originally published, in four small volumes, by the Religious Tract Society of London. On examination, it has been found well adapted to supply a previous lack in the current literature of the age. We take pleasure in placing the work before American readers in a more convenient form than that of its first publication, and trust that it will be extensively perused by young and old throughout our land. N o nation ought to be better acquainted than ours with the history of the Popes, and the sys tem of religion of which they are acknowledged heads; for none has more to fear from the move ments of Romanists.

Excerpt from The Lives of the Popes, Vol. 1: From the Rise of the Roman Church to the Dawn of the Reformation, A. D. 100-1431 The title of pope, or more correctly papa, was, in the earliest days of Christianity, spon taneously applied, by the love and reverence of believers, to those who were over them in the Lord, and whom they justly regarded as their Spiritual fathers. It was the common dis tinction of the presbyters and bishops from all the other members of the church, who styled each other, in the same spirit of Christian sim plicity and affection, brethren and sisters, and received new converts into their com munion, as new members into a family, with a fraternal kiss. Not till the eleventh century was the title of pope claimed by the bishop of Rome as his exclusive right. From that time, however, it has been generally em ployed to distinguish the Roman bishop from all others holding the episcopal office in the Christian church, and has been applied to such as preceded the abovefnamed epoch, as well as to those who have more lately occupied the papal chair.
