It is not without reason 115 1 | on men to celebrate the birthdays of these illustrious Fathers, 116 18 | to hear them: faults were bitterly bewept, injuries were forgotten, 117 16 | drink in their exceeding bitterness, when an angel from heaven 118 10 | even as at that period the blessed Father Dominic Guzman was 119 25 | struck recently with a heavy blow, are in a most piteous condition. 120 23 | Men bound together by the bonds of true fraternal concord 121 16 | his soul; on his body he bore the living tokens of the 122 23 | most hateful burthen.

For, by calling on men to celebrate the 132 15 | resemblance, he received on his Calvary, Mt. Alvernus (by a miracle 133 7 | salvation of all.

This charity he 144 10 | It was certainly no mere chance that brought to the ears 145 24 | neither was born for these changeable goods, the one is to attain 146 10 | deprives himself of all, changes his clothing, adopts poverty 147 8 | sufficiently well known, and its character of mingled virtues and vices. 148 15 | born in a stable; a little child as he was, his couch was 149 15 | the presence of angelic choirs, and melodies wafted through 150 17 | how worthy that God should choose him to bring back his contemporaries 151 15 | united with himself some chosen disciples, whom he sent 152 17 | protector and pillar of Christendom. Nor, in truth, did he delay 153 10 | great works, of inciting Christians to virtue, and of bringing 154 22 | grand and most sweet verse; Cimabue and Giotto drew from his 155 1 | Apostolic Benediction.~A happy circumstance enables the Christian world 156 11 | about careless and roughly clad, begging his food from door 157 22 | copiously flowed. Hence it is clear that from this one man a 158 27 | Brethren, and to all the clergy and the flock committed 159 26 | piety and the faith of her client by heavenly protection and 160 3 | We have, out of devotion, climbed with eagerness and joy the 161 10 | for your journey, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor a staff."(2) 162 22 | divine charity had grown cold, so also is it now; nor 163 27 | the clergy and the flock committed to each of you, the Apostolic 164 1 | World in the Grace and ~Communion of the Apostolic See.~Venerable 165 26 | the Italians, from whom community of country and the particular 166 10 | poverty as his associate and companion during the remainder of 167 15 | wafted through the air, completed this resemblance.

It was 180 24 | munificent, and the poor content with their lot and labour; 181 22 | days in hunting for the conveniences of life, and greedily following 182 5 | that these Letters should convey to you the public testimony 183 23 | Christian religion feel a conviction that those who are in legitimate 184 22 | divine bounty largely and copiously flowed. Hence it is clear 185 15 | Christ,-he would not have a corner wherein he might lay his 186 21 | fortunes and instrument of corruption, was subdued. And thus domestic 187 15 | little child as he was, his couch was of straw on the ground. 188 | could 189 10 | ears of the youth these counsels of the gospel: "Do not possess 190 22 | stirred up the minds of our countrymen so that, in reproducing 191 21 | this honour; and, in the course of centuries, several Sovereign 192 22 | they waste their own, and covet the substance of others; 193 8 | things of this world, either coveted madly honours and wealth, 194 22 | sweetly uttered its infant cries; he expressed the power 195 18 | apparently so inadequate. Crowds gathered round them, eager 196 17 | when near the church of St. Damian, "Go thou and uphold my 197 20 | dangerous seductions of dances and plays.~ 198 20 | and to abstain from the dangerous seductions of dances and 199 6 | at once a refuge from all dangers and a remedy for all evils. 200 22 | of the greatest artists. Dante even found in Francis matter 201 8 | disposition of soul which dares all that is arduous or difficult; 202 8 | but agreeable. There was a dearth of such virtue in the twelfth 203 8 | The Catholic faith was deeply rooted in men's souls, and 204 25 | condition. God grant that they, defended by the patronage of their 205 10 | Dominic Guzman was occupied in defending the integrity of heavensent 206 8 | others, had not avoided defiling themselves with the prevalent 207 20 | quarrels, and in no way to defraud our neighbour; to take up 208 26 | abundance of benefits received demand a greater devotion to St. 209 22 | increased, who obstinately deny that submission to the Church 210 10 | personally to himself, he at once deprives himself of all, changes 211 4 | honoured, if they who pay them derive profit therefrom. Now their 212 21 | deemed the Franciscan badges derogatory to their dignity. The associates 213 13 | 13. Therefore has he deserved well of that brotherhood 214 21 | Christ, new Maccabees;" and deservedly so. For the public welfare 215 21 | is the greatest and only desirable honour. More than this, 216 22 | greatest poverty, never desisted from relieving others' wants, 217 8 | oppression to the wretched and despised masses; and those even who 218 22 | whom, as he had utterly despoiled himself of all human things, 219 26 | disorder to peace, from destruction to safety, by the favour 220 8 | disposition are a heart detached from mortal things, complete 221 20 | reasons for which the Saint determined to institute the brotherhood 222 12 | Christian faith, and to devote himself to that work, though 223 8 | resolved to conquer or to die. But licentiousness had 224 24 | revolution, hatred among the different ranks of society, in all 225 8 | dares all that is arduous or difficult; its symbol is the Cross, 226 22 | and the helpless is daily diminished. In the time We are speaking 227 10 | Considering these words as directed personally to himself, he 228 25 | flourishing, from so many disasters; may he also grant that 229 25 | people may rend towards the discipline of the Third Order with 230 18 | reintroduced by the appeasing of discords.~ 231 26 | see itself led back from disorder to peace, from destruction 232 21 | causes of litigation and dispute were suppressed, consolation 233 10 | heavensent doctrine and in dissipating the perverse errors of heretics 234 1 | celebrate, at a not far distant interval, the memory of 235 23 | becoming to the poor and distressed, as bearing the image of 236 22 | power of the Church, had disturbed society and paved the way 237 8 | extinction of charity in divers places was followed by scourges 238 8 | rife; and minds were so divided and hostile that on the 239 25 | it promises; and in so doing all the more pains are to 240 22 | times and places, no one can doubt that the Franciscan institutions 241 22 | verse; Cimabue and Giotto drew from his history subjects 242 16 | seeking to take to himself and drink in their exceeding bitterness, 243 | during 244 22 | the neglect of Christian duties small, whether from ignorance 245 8 | accompany the fulfilment of duty, and renders the hardest 246 3 | of devotion, climbed with eagerness and joy the sacred heights 247 10 | chance that brought to the ears of the youth these counsels 248 18 | to exhort men to despise earthly things and to think of the 249 21 | 21. It is easy to understand what immense 250 8 | carry on their shoulder. The effects of this disposition are 251 11 | Thenceforth, amidst the effeminacy and over-fastidiousness 252 21 | IX., of France, and St. Elizabeth of Hungary, sought this 253 | else 254 16 | whom some mysterious virtue emanated: at once St. Francis feels 255 25 | patronage of their Father, may emerge, youthful and flourishing, 256 1 | Benediction.~A happy circumstance enables the Christian world to celebrate, 257 14 | this irreproachable man endeavoured to reproduce in himself 258 4 | object of admiration, and in endeavouring to improve by imitating 259 25 | We desire that by your endeavours especially it may be increased 260 8 | and a gentle and resigned endurance of adversity. In fine, the 261 11 | from door to door, not only enduring what is generally deemed 262 2 | neighbouring territories enlightened by his presence, but it 263 | enough 264 25 | Christian men not to refuse to enroll themselves in this sacred 265 8 | for too many among men, enslaved by the things of this world, 266 25 | is, how easily anyone may enter it, with how great privileges 267 18 | the fruits produced by the enterprise of such workers, apparently 268 26 | centuries, Italy and the entire Christian world would be 269 8 | scourges manifold and daily; envy, jealousy, hatred, were 270 2 | Benedict, it will strive with equal ardour, by public festivities 271 25 | the Third Order and truly esteem it; provide that those who 272 | ever 273 1 | crowd of disciples, the ever-increasing off spring from their virtues. 274 6 | Liberator of mankind, is the everlasting and ever flowing source 275 | everyone 276 | everywhere 277 17 | such manifestations are evident; they signified that St. 278 16 | himself and drink in their exceeding bitterness, when an angel 279 3 | approve of this zeal for so excellent an object, especially because 280 5 | that they should, moreover, excite your charity to labour with 281 10 | whom God was guiding to the execution of great works, of inciting 282 24 | viz., the relations which exist between the rich and poor, 283 25 | the good that they would expect would be futile. Therefore 284 19 | 19. It is impossible to express the enthusiasm with which 285 22 | uttered its infant cries; he expressed the power of charity and 286 2 | by his presence, but it extends to every part of the earth, 287 14 | Divine Redeemer, even in externals.~ 288 8 | the prevalent vices. The extinction of charity in divers places 289 24 | nothing is more efficacious to extinguish utterly every vice of this 290 22 | the substance of others; extolling indeed the name of human 291 4 | followed, an opportune and extremely efficacious remedy will 292 9 | undertook to place before the eyes of the aging world, in his 293 20 | and His Church, to avoid factions and quarrels, and in no 294 21 | Religious Orders, and by the facts themselves of history. In 295 6 | If then the human race fall into sin, either through 296 17 | supporting on his shoulders the falling walls of the Lateran Basilica. 297 1 | seeds of civilization and of fame were cast by their labour, 298 16 | miracle than considered famous by the voice of hundreds 299 1 | birthdays of these illustrious Fathers, God would seem to wish 300 26 | destruction to safety, by the favour of the Saint of Assisi. 301 22 | in Our day, likewise, the favourers and propagators of Materialism 302 27 | as a pledge of celestial favours and in proof of Our special 303 2 | confident that these solemn feasts will not prove fruitless 304 23 | with the Christian religion feel a conviction that those 305 16 | emanated: at once St. Francis feels his hands and feet transfixed, 306 16 | Francis feels his hands and feet transfixed, as it were, 307 2 | equal ardour, by public festivities and by numerous acts of 308 2 | St. Francis. Nor is the field whereon this noble rivalry 309 27 | September, 1882, and in the fifth year of Our Pontificate.~ 310 8 | endurance of adversity. In fine, the love of God and of 311 14 | of Christ Jesus. But the finger of Providence was again 312 22 | Christian, is wonderfully fitted for all times and places, 313 24 | solved if they held this as a fixed principle, viz., that poverty 314 8 | sight to see multitudes in flamed by piety set forth for Palestine, 315 22 | agrarian outbreaks, they flatter the desires of the proletariat, 316 27 | to all the clergy and the flock committed to each of you, 317 19 | with which the multitude flocked to St. Francis. Wherever 318 6 | the everlasting and ever flowing source of all the good things 319 22 | conveniences of life, and greedily following after pleasures. Overflowing 320 11 | because he had embraced the folly of the cross of Jesus Christ, 321 25 | already begun to walk in the footsteps of the Seraphic Father with 322 18 | bitterly bewept, injuries were forgotten, and sentiments of peace 323 | formerly 324 8 | multitudes in flamed by piety set forth for Palestine, resolved 325 21 | and luxury, that gulf of fortunes and instrument of corruption, 326 18 | grace of God, and under the fostering care of the Sovereign Pontiff, 327 21 | sufficiently established by the foundation of so many similar associations 328 22 | proletariat, and they weaken the foundations of domestic and public order.~ 329 1 | the Religious Orders they founded ought on no account to have 330 10 | embraced in a lofty and sublime frame of mind, the fundamental 331 21 | others, King Louis IX., of France, and St. Elizabeth of Hungary, 332 25 | to be taken because the Franciscans of the First and Second 333 23 | together by the bonds of true fraternal concord would mutually love 334 22 | nevertheless speak more fraternally than they act; for they 335 22 | indeed the name of human fraternity, they nevertheless speak 336 2 | the Religious Orders its friends; and thus, having honoured 337 4 | their solid and lasting fruit is in the attaining some 338 2 | solemn feasts will not prove fruitless to the Christian world, 339 18 | is marvellous to see the fruits produced by the enterprise 340 8 | hardships that accompany the fulfilment of duty, and renders the 341 10 | sublime frame of mind, the fundamental rules of his Order.~ 342 21 | arms were torn from the furious hands that grasped them, 343 1 | Assisi will likewise be furnished by the seventh centenary 344 25 | they would expect would be futile. Therefore take pains that 345 18 | apparently so inadequate. Crowds gathered round them, eager to hear 346 17 | presented itself to the gaze of Innocent III. less worthy 347 11 | not only enduring what is generally deemed most hard to bear, 348 21 | prevailed an enthusiasm and a generous and eager ardour to be affiliated 349 1 | cast by their labour, their genius and their zeal.~ 350 8 | complete self-control, and a gentle and resigned endurance of 351 21 | peace, incorrupt morality, gentleness of behaviour, the legitimate 352 22 | away by self love, and the genuine charity towards the poorer 353 22 | sweet verse; Cimabue and Giotto drew from his history subjects 354 8 | men's souls, and it was a glorious sight to see multitudes 355 10 | gospel: "Do not possess gold, nor silver, nor money in 356 24 | born for these changeable goods, the one is to attain heaven 357 18 | place themselves under his government were like a small seed, 358 22 | due, and hence proceeding gradually beyond all bounds, do not 359 22 | in Francis matter for his grand and most sweet verse; Cimabue 360 10 | wisdom, so was the grace granted to St. Francis, whom God 361 14 | Providence was again visible in granting to him a likeness to the 362 21 | from the furious hands that grasped them, the causes of litigation 363 8 | But licentiousness had greatly impaired popular morality, 364 22 | conveniences of life, and greedily following after pleasures. 365 21 | than this, Our Predecessor, Gregory IX., publicly praised their 366 15 | couch was of straw on the ground. And it is also related 367 22 | century divine charity had grown cold, so also is it now; 368 21 | in that body of men who, guided by the virtues and rules 369 10 | St. Francis, whom God was guiding to the execution of great 370 21 | abandoned; and luxury, that gulf of fortunes and instrument 371 10 | the blessed Father Dominic Guzman was occupied in defending 372 22 | always offering the right hand of help to the afflicted 373 15 | like Jesus Christ, it so happened that St. Francis was born 374 1 | Apostolic Benediction.~A happy circumstance enables the 375 11 | is generally deemed most hard to bear, the senseless ridicule 376 8 | of duty, and renders the hardest labours not only bearable, 377 8 | that it wipes away all the hardships that accompany the fulfilment 378 18 | quickly became an abundant harvest. After having holily instructed 379 | hast 380 23 | seems to many to be a most hateful burthen. Men bound together 381 15 | wherein he might lay his head. As a last mark of resemblance, 382 1 | See.~Venerable Brethren, Health and the Apostolic Benediction.~ 383 18 | gathered round them, eager to hear them: faults were bitterly 384 10 | defending the integrity of heavensent doctrine and in dissipating 385 25 | been struck recently with a heavy blow, are in a most piteous 386 3 | eagerness and joy the sacred heights of Alvernia; there the image 387 22 | towards the poorer and the helpless is daily diminished.

After having holily instructed them in the school 396 1 | eternal reward of their holiness, have left on earth a crowd 397 22 | that from this one man a host of benefits has flowed into 398 8 | minds were so divided and hostile that on the slightest pretext 399 7 | providentially appointed hour of help has struck, God 400 17 | and uphold my tottering house." Nor is the heavenly vision 401 16 | considered famous by the voice of hundreds of years.
