No Popery: Stanzas, In Two Cantos (1854)

Book Overview

No Popery: Stanzas, In Two Cantos is a book of poetry written by Verax and published in 1854. The book is a scathing critique of the Catholic Church and its practices, and is written in a highly critical and satirical tone. The two cantos of the book are made up of stanzas that attack various aspects of Catholicism, including the use of Latin in the Mass, the veneration of saints, and the doctrine of transubstantiation. The book is a reflection of the anti-Catholic sentiment that was prevalent in the 19th century, particularly in England, and was part of a larger movement to promote Protestantism and denounce Catholicism. Despite its controversial subject matter, No Popery: Stanzas, In Two Cantos remains an important historical document that sheds light on the religious and cultural tensions of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
