Book Description
Excerpt from Bossuet and His Contemporaries He led him about, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His Eye. - deut. Xxxii. 10. Antoine lived in his house, he soon made a home of his uncle's library, and before he was seven years old began to look upon books as the companions and chief interest of his life; to turn to them as his best amuse ment and greatest pleasure; and consequently study became a passion, a craving of his whole being, which required to be controlled and disciplined, as it assuredly was hereafter, when action as well as thought and study claimed so large a part of his life.
