Notes:
The recent discussion in Boston on the subject of Indulgences gives a momentary practical interest to the historical questions involved in it. These can best be traced in Spain, where mediaeval traditions have been preserved, and where the effects of the Counter-Reformation were scarcely felt, long after they had become dominant throughout the other lands of the Roman obedience. It is in a survival of this kind that we obtain the clearest evidences as to the past. Unvexed by the controversy which raged between Luther and Dr. Eck and Silvester Prierias, Spain continued tranquilly to follow in the old and beaten path, and furnishes us with the incontestable official documents which enable us to examine the matter in the pure light of history.
