Girolamo Seripando

"Seripando displayed burning zeal, working especially to bring about a thorough reform of his order and to purge it of the Lutheran elements which had penetrated into it. During the first period of the Council of Trent, Seripando had played a most distinguished part."

"The best elements of humanism and Christianity were united in him."

"He distinguished himself by his zeal for the purity of the text of Holy Writ, and also by his peculiar views concerning original sin and justification."
