But we may be allowed to throw a glance back upon the most important portion of the reign of this Pope ; that is, upon his intervention in French affairs. In presence of the events of which France was the theatre, he aimed at two things : the preservation of the Catholic religion, which was seriously compromised, and the maintenance of France in the rank of the first Powers of Europe.
