Fervorinos From Galilee's Hills -

Sydney, Australia.: Pelligrini & Company.. Good with no dust jacket. 1937. Hardcover. 16mo - 16.5 x 10 cm.; 296 pp. Black cloth over boards with gilt lettering on spine and front board. A fervorino is a small spontaneous prayer or meditation of love, affection, trust, thanksgiving . . . that arises from the heart and flies like an arrow to the heavenly throne. The ones here are based on scripture. The front free end paper plus the preliminaries, the frontis illustration and the first two paginated leaves have been removed meaning that the title and copyright pages are gone. Otherwise the book shows mild wear and soiling to the externals with the front hinge having some play or looseness in it. The interior is clean and the illustrations, aside from the frontis, are present. A small book that expresses Carmelite devotion at its most personal. .
