“Filled as we all are with a most ardent desire to see the true Christian spirit flourish in every respect and be preserved by all the faithful. We deem it necessary to provide before anything else for the sanctity and dignity of the temple, in which the faithful assemble for no other object than that of acquiring this spirit from its foremost and indispensable font, which is the active participation in the most holy mysteries and in the public and solemn prayer of the Church.
Roman Catholic Diocese of Cloyne, County Cork, Ireland.
