  • The Homilies of St. John Chrysostom
    St. John Chrysostom / W. R. W. STEPHENS
    The following have been selected out of a large number delivered by Chrysostom on the festivals of saints and martyrs, not only because they are good samples of his discourses on such occasions, but also on account of the celebrity of the two saints in whose honor they were spoken.
