I did not think I was doing wrong, sir, as the lady was at perfect liberty to tell you." "That's all very well, but you must go, as the lady, who gave me the letter unopened, as you can see for yourself, is offended with you." I called Le Duc, who paid the man and sent him away. I opened the letter, and found it to be from Petri. Rosalie left my side, not wishing to read the contents.
Though he behaved to me in a very friendly manner he knew how to maintain an air of superiority which imposed on me. Nothing else could have given him the courage to ask me to dinner when Petri was to be present. I felt that I had been tricked, and I thought myself in duty bound to make him esteem me by my behaviour for the future.
Here there was again the same hesitation, but as if impelled by the will of the exorcist she answered R. Grandier. Grandier. D. Dic qualitatem? What is his profession? R. Sacerdos. A priest. D. Cujus ecclesiae? Of what church? R. Sancti Petri. Saint-Pierre. D. Quae persona attulit flores? Who brought the flowers? R. Diabolica. Someone sent by the devil.
At this the uncle and aunt, who no doubt knew what to say, began to laud and extol their nephew, and ended by saying that as they had no children they were delighted that Petri, who would be their heir, was to have his excellency's patronage. "We are longing," they added, "to see the girl from Marseilles he is going to marry. We should welcome her as a beloved daughter."
Quid inde? Non Petri, Paulo stat fabricata domus. Which means: 'The corner is Peter's, but the whole front Paul's. Not being Peter's, the house is built for Paul. The thing itself, the central cathedral of Christendom, is so enormous that many who gaze on it for the first time do not even notice that hugely lettered papal name.
When Constantine raised the monumental basilicas over their tombs on the Via Cornelia and the Via Ostiensis; when Eudoxia built the Church ad Vincula; when Damascus put a memorial tablet in the Platonia and Catacombos; when the houses of Pudens and Aquila and Prisca were turned into oratories; when the name of Nymphae Sancti Petri was given to the springs in the catacombs of the Via Nomentana; when the 29th of June was accepted as the anniversary of St.
Thomas Aquinas, and the undivided unity suffused throughout the world, of which the Cathedra Petri is the centre, isnow 1800 years old, and mightier in every power now than ever in intellect, in science, in separation from the world; and purer too, refined by 300 years of conflict with the modern infidel civilisation all of this is a fact more solid than the earth.
I promised to dine with him the next day, and I kept my word. After dinner I gave him a long letter for Rosalie, whom I did not expect to see again except as Madame Petri, though I took care not to let the marquis know what I thought. In the evening I supped with the two sisters, and I made myself equally agreeable to both of them.
The Chi Rho is found as early as 312 in Rome and 377 in Gaul, with Alpha and Omega, 355 in Rome and 400 in Gaul. Hic iacet is found in 365. The stone at Whithorn itself has Petri Apustoli rather rudely carved on it.
Holbein drew a superb title-page, ante-dated 1523, for this "enterprise" of Petri the New Testament "now right faithfully rendered into German," with the symbols of the Evangelists at the four corners, the arms of Basel at the top, the device of the printer at the foot, and the noble figures of St. Paul and St.
