The Life of Our most Holy Father Saint Benedict was written by Pope Saint Gregory the Great. It is based on a book printed in London in 1898 by Thomas Baker. The original file includes the following dedications:
This Edition of the Life and rule of Saint Benedict is respectfully, gratefully and affectionately dedicated by His English Daughters in Rome who owe to His Eminence more graces and blessings than words can convey.
The Latin of this edition of the life of Saint Benedict by Saint Gregory the Great, is from that used by dom. Edmund Martane, the English is almost exactly that of the quaint translation published in 1638. The text used for the Holy Rule is that of an ancient manuscript existing at Monte Cassino, first published in 1659 by Dom, Paul de Ferrariis, a monk of that Abbey. The English is, as far as is consistent with the original, from the time honoured translation of 1638, as edited in 1875 by "one of the Benedictine Fathers of Saint Michael's, neat Hereford."
