spiritual energy: for, almost in
variably, Roman Catholic art rep
resents Him either as a dead
Christ on the cross, or a babe in
his mother’s arms, and hardly ever
as the Risen and Glorified Lord,
; the Conqueror of death, the Lea-
der of His people, to whom all
I power is given in heaven and on
earth—the more usual Protestant
conception. And. we asked our
selves whether this difference did
not explain the greater hopeful
ness, vigor and growth of Protes
tant Christianity in these strenu
ous latter day s.”
We then proceeded to the Vati

After luncheon we drove direct
ly to the remains of the Theatre of
Marcellus (now a tenement build
ing and once the prison-house of
Beatrice Cenchi) after which the
Colosseum is supposedly pattern
ed; thence to the Campanile
Church, the Temple of Hercules,
Rienzi’s House, the Temple 61
Fortune, and the Island of the
Tiber and old Roman Bridge
and arches; and out of the city and
old Roman walls by the Gate of
St. Paul and Pyramid of Caius
Cestius (finely preserved), close
by the English Cemetery,in which
we were given time to see the
tombstone of the poet Thomas
Keats, once so villified, now so re
spected, with its striking epitaph
written by the one whose body
now lies beneath it—“Here lies
one whose name was writ in water!"
On we went a couple ot miles
through the country to the splen
did B silica of “St. Paul outside
the walls" (built by the govern
ment and Roman ministry), with
its granite columns from the Alps,
alabaster columns from the Orient
and old court and fine engravings
—the richest in the world and the
handsomest of the modern church
es in Rome. Large of dimension
and costly of material enriched by
Egyptian alabaster, Russian mala
chite, and fine old mosaics, it was
consecrated in 1854* R* lovely
and impressive interior will ever
remain with us as one of our most
lasting and enjoyable memories,
being in the highest and purest de
gree tasty of look without gaudi
ness.
This is just as we found it. From
the inscriptions and paintings
found in the catacombs much is
learned as to early belief and prac- ,
tice and worship, but it is signally j
notable that “there is literally the
silence of the tomb regarding,
masses tor the repose of souls, the
adoration of Mary, prayers to
saints, enforced celibacy of the
clergy," etc.; in a word, that “no
specifically Romanist doctrine
finds any support in inscriptions
dating before the fourth century."
Thence our way led us to tl e

Maria Maggiore a proud place

icas of Rome." (Dr. W. W.
Moore).
Then we took in the Basilica of
St. John in Lateran (dating as far
back as Constantine’s time, but
destroyed and rebuilt again and
again), with its beautiful bronze
doors from the Senate House in
the Forum, and some fine mosaics,
marbles, frescoes, and statuary.
Its great relics are the skulls of
St. Peter and St. Paul, the psuedo
mass-table used by Peter in Pu-
dens’ house, and the so-called ce
dar-table used by our Lord and
his disciples in observance of the
Last Supper(?) In the Lateran
Museum (the former Palace of the
Lateran) are some fine sarcophagi
and bas-reliefs. But we must not
jump too far at once, for just
across from the N. E. corner of
the Lateran we visited a building
containing what is known as “the
Sancta Scala" or “the Holy Stairs,”
Lord Jesus Christ and the Father
m Heaven above. We could not
so compromise our principles, for
curiosity or any other reason
der the sun. In Rome we did not
do as Rome does, we try as truly
to serve God and man away from
home as when at home,and are not
twisted on the one side or other to
conformity to the ways of an evil
and adulterous generation, chang
ing color according to circumstan
ces, like the chameleon.
The costume ot the Swiss
Guardsmen in the papal palace is
peculiarly striking in its bright yel
low and gold and other colors, the
design of the great Michel Angelo.
In the afternoon we visited by
carriage in order the Baths of
Caracalla, Porta Capena, Septizo-
nium of Emperor Septimuis Se-
verus, the site of the Circus Maxi
mus, the Arch of Drusus, St. Se
bastian Gate, the Chapel of Dom-
ine Quo Vadis, and St, Sebastian

He was not a success as a corpse,
mummy or skeieton, but a grand
success in embodying the repulsive
features of each. Then descend
ing into the vaults below, we saw
the skulls of 4,000 Capuchin
monks, apparently gazing at us.
When a monk died, he was first
buried in the holy earth brought
from Jerusalem. Then the re
mains of the monks were gradual
ly dug up as tne space was needed
for a new ‘hie jecet.' Some that
had mummified were dressed in
their cowls and set, up along the
walls in different attitudes. One
seems to be bowing to you; anoth
er, with sightless eyes, seems to
stare at you; a third, with con
sumptive looking form and shrun

prayer book, Then the living
monks took the bones of their de
parted brethren and hic-jacet-ed
them as wall-flowers, and as fres
coes on the ceiling, and as foot
lights on the edge of their little
imported burying-ground. Was
all this in contempt of death, in

or to attract sight-seers? We did
not ask, We cannot tell." (Stud-
