"Itisnotfarfromhere,in theSabina,thatthatenergetic andruggedmancultivatedthe fieldsandvinesthathadbeen bequeathedtohimbyhis father,"headded.

"Andonecouldwritethat uptothemiddleofthe19th centurywine-growingdeviated !titlefromthepreceptsofthe ancients."
INhisspeechtodelegatesto"aconventiononcommercialeducationHisHoliness spokeofrelationsbetweenthe merchantandtheChurchas being"certainlyasoldasthe ChurchItself."Hecontinued:
"Theroadsalongwhichthe firstmessengersoftheGospels, theApostles,movedtowards theconquestoftheworld,and thatalongwhichSt.Paultrod onthejourneysmentionedin theActsoftheApostleswere notonlytheroadsofthe RomanLegionsandRoman functionaries,butalsothoseof themerchantandworldtrade."
