What a splendid victory! The Church was his home, and he returned to it after a long absence with all the majesty of an absolute master, who could crush the evil-speaking slaves who dared to attack him.
The greatness of the Church seemed to him at that moment more glorious than ever.

What an admirable institution! The strong man who arrived at the top was an omnipotent god to be feared.

Nothing of pernicious and revolutionary equality.

Dogma exalted the humility of all before God; but when you came to examples, flocks were always spoken of, and shepherds to direct them.

He was that shepherd because the Omnipotent has so ordered it.
