St. Francis

The Lord granted to me, Br. Francis, to begin to

do penance in this way: While I was still in sin, it

seemed very bitter for me to see lepers. But the

Lord Himself led me among them, and I had

mercy on them. And when I left them what hadbefore seemed bitter to me was transformed into

sweetness of soul and body; afterward I delayed

a little and then left the world.
