Henri Faure

Rev Fr. Henri Faure wrote these words before "The consolations of purgatory" to introduce himself: - In obedience to the decrees of Urban the Eighth, I declare that I have no intention of attributing any other than a purely human authority to the miracles, revelations, favours, and particular cases recorded in this book, and the same as regards the titles of Saints and Blessed applied to servants of God not yet canonized, except in those cases which have been confirmed by the Holy Roman Catholic Church and the Apostolic See, of which I declare myself to be an obedient son; and therefore I submit myself and all that I have written in this book to her judgment.
