When Father Faber began, in 1847, the series of translations of Lives of the Saints, under the title of The Saints and Servants of God, the life of St. Philip Neri, Apostle of Rome, and founder of the Congregation of the Oratory, was the first to engage his attention. It appeared in two volumes, 8vo, translated from the enlarged and corrected edition of the Life of the Saint, by Father Pietro Giacomo Bacci, of the Roman Oratory, published at Rome by Marini in 1837.In 1851 a new edition of Bacci's classical work, La Vita di San Filippo Neri, had appeared in Florence, comprising certain emendations, and additions from the Lives of the Saint by Fathers Gallonio, Bernabei, Ricci, and others, which were incorporated in the text, together with twelve additional Letters of the Saint unknown to previous editors.The translation of the Life of St. Philip, published in 1847, had been long out of print, when, in 1868, a second edition appeared.
