Newman’s Sanctity: The Recent ‘Life’

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  30 August 2024

Extract

Those of us who have heard Elgar's ‘Overture to the Dream of Gerontius’ will not have forgotten its awesome atmosphere of religious mystery. God is calling a Christ-dedicated soul home to complete union with himself; but first there must be a pilgrimage of purification, since only holiness can abide even the veiled presence of the All-Holy.
