The representation of these people and groups as the concensus of the Church is entirely unwarranted. The criticism of "super-legal" action rests upon them as individuals and groups.

Almost every gesture finds its antecedent and is copied and built upon almost unconsciously...

If an occasional passage was not executed with perfect technical ease, this did not destroy the total effect, not interrupt the continuity, which seems to be Gross' first concern. It is not surprising that such a spirited...
