This work is issued as a reply to the oft-repeated question:  Why do we ignore Ecclesiastical Latin in our Catholic high schools and colleges?  It has always seemed incongruous that the Latin courses in our Catholic schools should disregard entirely the treasures that Church Latin holds out to the student.  Why should the attention of the pupil be focused entirely on the pagan authors, especially in these days of liturgical revival?  This book aims to set before both teacher and pupil choice selections from Ecclesiastical sources.
