Excerpt from The Life of St. Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury: A Contribution to a Knowledge of the Moral, Ecclesiastical, and Literary Life of the Eleventh Twelfth Centuries S'r. Anselm belongs in more than one respect to that class of distinguished men, whom the history of the Christian Church draws forth from its rich trea sures, and presents to us in all the excellence of their personal character. His life was placed in that happy period of the history of the church, when she power fully and successfully exerted all her force to escape from that melancholy thraldom, in which she had so long been held by the vicissitudes and' revolutions of all social institutions.
