This custom of giving communion to children was not of necessity for salvation, as Cardinal Noris proves in Vindiciis Augustinianis § 4, and the Council of Trent observes. In Gaul about the year 452, S. Mamertus bishop of Vienne appointed solemn litanies to be recited on the three rogation days.

To him, with his copiously if somewhat oddly furnished mind, and his natural activity of imagination, one could hardly apply the line of Persius, "Tecum habita et noris quam sit tibi curta supellex;"

There are small hens also in these parts, many of which are black in the flesh, and lay their eggs, larger than those of ducks, in holes above nine feet under ground.

Live virtuously, make honest friends, read the good old books, lay up a store of kindly recollections, of firelit rooms in venerable courts, of pleasant talks, of innocent festivities.
