 Chapter VIII. Catholic Politics and Catholic Intellect, 1860-1861
During two centuries of intolerance the Catholics had suffered persecution and exclusion from the life of the nation; it was only in the more tolerant eighteenth century that they could begin to find their place in English life.
The Catholic revival was therefore to be a two-sided process: the development of a greater sympathy towards Catholicism among the English Protestants, and a response by the Catholics to the challenges and opportunities of the new age.

 CATHOLIC REVIVAL
Not only is there a possibility of a Catholic revival, there is a certainty of it if we simply correct the present pattern of emphasis to the pattern followed by Jesus which he gave to his first followers and to the early Church.
