Excerpt from Les Libres Prêcheurs Devanciers de Luther Et de Rabelais: Etude Historique, Critique Et Anecdotique sur les Xive, Xve Et Xvie Siècles
On a tr0p dédaigné ces humbles précurseurs des illustres orateurs sacrés du dia - septième siècle. Ce fumier de nos vicua sermonnaires contient bien de l'or pur on y rencontre une profusion de fortes pensées, de vives images, de plaisanteries acérées et tranchantes, de véhémentes apostrophes, d'apologues mais ce qui les recommande surtout à la postérité, c'est leur sympathie énergique pour les soufi'i*ances au peuple et la généreuse audace de leur attaque contre les vices des grands, des prélats, des gens de loi, de tous les oppresseurs des pwwvres et des faibles. Jamais la liberté de la.
