A01200Brother Giles herevpon replyed: Tell me, Father, if you please, can an ignorant person loue God as much as one learned?
A01200Brother Giles put this question to a Religious with whome he was very familier: doe you beleeue that I loue you?
A01200Brother Macie replyed, how shall God shew vs his will herein?
A01200But Brother Leo not satisfied with this answeare, they added: we haue a purpose to burne that box: what think you of it?

A01200But what shall we say, the conditions of this world being so corrupted, that one can not speake good of good, nor euill of euil?
A01200But will you that I yet more manifestly demonstrate that a creature can doe somewhat?
A01200Do not you beleeue that sometimes I would giue my neighbour a thousand duckets if I had them, rather then I would giue him my selfe?
A01200For confirmation whereof, what are the seruantes of God, said he, but his representers to moue and awaken humane hartes to true spirituall ioy?
A01200Francis thereto as an other S. Paul, thus said: O my God, what wilt thou then that I doe?

A01200Giles answeared, doth it please your holinesse that I sing?
A01200Giles made this demannd to a Religious of his Couent: Brother what say the Doctours of contēplation?
A01200Giles replyed: how much rather then ought a man runne to seeke and purchase the infinite treasure of the kingdome of God?
A01200Giles sayd vnto him, come hither brother, what would you doe to a dogge that would bite you?
A01200Giles: Father, beleeue you that euery one worcketh as much as he beleeueth?
A01200He once sayd to a Religious that would goe to a lecture att a Colledge: Tell me wherfore would you goe to the lecture?
A01200He thē asked him for how many yeares he desired the indulgēce S. Francis answeared: Holy Father I desire not yeares, but soules?
A01200How much are you worth?
A01200IESVS CHRIST then with a terrible voice sayd to the Priour: Of what Order art thou?
A01200If any one would permitt you to goe into his vineyeard there to gather grapes, would you content your selfe with leaues?
A01200If one would giue thee eyes?
A01200Is that the way of pouerty which thou seekest?
A01200Is there not great difference betweene his discent and mine?
A01200Know you not that S. Francis is an Angel of heauen on earth?
A01200Macie, are we cause of thy sorrow?
A01200Neuertheles it would be ridiculous, for the vessell to complaine, and say: why is this honour giuen to him rather then to me?
A01200Now the glorious Father sainct Francis appeared to him one night in vision, and said: Come with me: he answeared: whither?
A01200Now who hath more perfectly knowne himselfe?
A01200O Iudge, sayd he, beleeue you that the recompenses which God promiseth his seruantes are great?
A01200O admirable accident?
A01200O how happy and blessed are they who loue God withall their hart, with all their soules, and with all their forces, and their neighbour as themselues?
A01200O my God ▪ how doth thy diuine maiesty loue him, that with all his hart obeyeth thy holy commandementes?
A01200Of what Order they were?
A01200Of what master hast thou learned to moūt to so high a degree of perfection, that neuer S. of either sex could equall thee in the giftes of God?
A01200Oh God, brother Ruffinus what wordes haue you vttered?
A01200Oh wretch: thou feedest already on humane flesh: why seekest thou not they food other where?
A01200Phillip said to him Lord shew vs the Father,& it sufficeth vs. IESVS said to him, So long time I am with you: and haue you not knowē me?
A01200S. Agnes then sayd to the child: My sonne, how doe you?
A01200S. Francis then answeared, which is this mountaine, my God?
A01200So in the presence of this Religious, sainte Clare, as if she came out of another place, sayd vnto her: what need haue you to light this candle?
A01200Tell me doe not I al this?
A01200The Cardinal replyed: Wherfore haue you sent your Religious so farre, to vndergoe so many afflictions?
A01200The Leaper answeared: Tell me I pray, what will you doe more then they?
A01200The President smiling said: And how know you these thinges to be so certaine as you auouch them?
A01200The Prouinciall answeared: What shall I doe with so many bookes as I haue, that are worth more then fortie crownes?
A01200The Religious answeared him: how is it possible you should be so cruell as that, seeing in what plight I am, you would I should trauaile?
A01200The Religious asking what he meant therbie; See you not, said he, our holie Father sainct Francis that now goeth to the glory of Paradice?
A01200The Religious replied, poore man doest thou then belieue it to be true?
A01200The S. asked him, who are you?
A01200The holie Father smilinglie answeared: What meane you by that brother Macie?
A01200The holy Father answeared him: Thincke you, my Lord, that God hath instituted this Religion for the good only of the Italian soules?
A01200The holy Father vnderstanding it, expelled him out of the Order with these wordes: What?
A01200The king hearing this said: How hast thou dared, thou lewd fellowe, so vnchastly to behold my wife?
A01200The voice replyed: Why then leauest thou the Lord, for the seruant; and for a very poore man, God that is most rich?
A01200Then he heard our Lord thus answeare her: See you not mother how manie iniuryes they doe me?
A01200Thē tourning to one of her Religious, she sayd: Doe you not see my daughter, the king of glory whome I see?
A01200Thinck you that Princes and Potentates bestow great fauours and prefermentes on sottish personnes and without iudgement?
A01200This holy Father would often, in prayer and att other times with exceeding feruour, say: What art thou my God, of whome I demaund this?
A01200This man of God replyed: hath then that Religious so great vertue as for three dayes to make thee mute?
A01200Vpon what reason, vpon what doctrine, and on what spiritt is grounded the foundation of this feeble opinion which you seeme to haue of your selfe?
A01200Were it not better for thee to conserue thy life, therein to serue thy God longer, and to profitt the holy church and thine Order?
A01200What countenance would you haue me to carry?
A01200What man is there, that will not doe that which is best, not only for his soule, but euen for his body in that which concerneth this life?
A01200What other testimony doe you expect more euident of the vertue of the loue of God?
A01200What then hath auayled the brauery and richesse that it brought?
A01200When will you compasse to know the truth, and to beleeue in the Sonne of God?
A01200Wherein then canst thou glory?
A01200Wherfore, O Father, doe you so leaue vs without a guide?
A01200Wherupon he said once in himselfe: Is it conuenient that thou haue alwayes a preist to serue thee?
A01200Whervpon he answeared thē, my lordes what need can you haue of my prayers, sith you haue a greater faith and hope then I?
A01200Whiles they were eating, he began to discouer who he was, saying vnto them: O men of litle faith, why distrust you the prouidence of God?
A01200Who can euer separate him frō prayer, which raiseth and eleuateth the spiritt vnto contemplation?
A01200Who hath planted this Religion of Freere Minors?
A01200Whose fault is it then if he liue in misery and pouerty, sith being called of God, he will not take the paines, to come to his presence?
A01200Why doest thou so much afflict thee?
A01200Will you, replyed the holy Father, that I speake mine opinion therof?
A01200a rich man, or a poore?
A01200afflictions?
A01200ah my God ▪ how pleasing and gratefull is such a soule vnto thee?
A01200and by what merueillous doctrine?
A01200and if thou hast receaued, why doest thou glory as if thou hast not receaued?
A01200and in what manner doest thou recompense her with eternall life?
A01200and what am I that aske it?
A01200and why then doe not I fly into the Mountaines and desertes, to auoid the hearing of such and the like matters of my Religious?
A01200are you besides you selfe?
A01200as if he would inferre: Francis, wherefore doe people so much honour you?
A01200couer me, couer me, who are they that withdraw the Religious from mine Order, and from my way, and my examples?
A01200haue you heard, how a creature hath power to good or euill?
A01200how and wherof they liued?
A01200how doest thou heare her in the company of Angels?
A01200how greatefull vnto thee are the obedient soules, that haue no other will then thine?
A01200how is it possible that my holy iustice permitt so many enormityes to be vnpunished?
A01200how pleasing to thy diuine Maiesty?
A01200how well louest thou the soule that possesseth it?
A01200how worthy and excellent a thing is sanctity and chastity?
A01200how ▪ much more diligence, ought each of you to loue and cherish his spirituall brother?
A01200how, and where they entred into the monastery att such an hower?
A01200if one wounded could fly him that threatneth his death, would he not fly?
A01200in what new scoole was it performed?
A01200is it not day?

A01200lett vs rather repaire to their king, endeauouring first to conquer the head, so with more ease& facility to gett victory of the mēbers afterward?

A01200or doe you yeeld to be deluded by the deuill?
