Prayers of the Saints: Being a Manual of Devotions Compiled from the Supplications of the Holy Saints and Blessed Martyrs and Famous Men (Classic Reprint) by Cecil Headlam (Paperback / softback, 2015)
Excerpt from Prayers of the Saints: Being a Manual of Devotions Compiled From the Supplications of the Holy Saints and Blessed Martyrs and Famous Men Scattered up and down the works of the early Fathers, in the records of the lives of the Saints, and in our own Literature, there are to be found many beautiful and touching prayers. Composed in the study of the scholar, in the calm devotion of cloisteral solitude, or amidst the dust and heat of public affairs; wrung from the tortured soul of the confessing penitent, or bursting from the happy lips of martyrs at the stake, these prayers of men so various and sincere have all, it seemed to me, their value, as the outpourings of faithful followers of Christ and members of His suffering or triumphant Church. Some of these, therefore, I have collected and translated here, in the hope that they may be read and used by others t without some of the profit and interest which I have myself derived from making the collection.
