Excerpt from St. Francis of Assisi: His Times, Life and Work; Lectures Delivered in Substance in the Ladye Chapel of Worcester Cathedral in the Lent of 1896 Premising this, it is worth our while to dwell upon the special spiritual value of the attentive study of the life of any great saint, especially in the less remote ages of the Church's history.

At the best of times it is not easy to realise the truth of things; even when we know that there is such truth, we are helped by the study of the actual lives of those who have lived the truth, to bring it home to ourselves. The strange and sacred and lofty sayings of our Lord in the Gospels are wont to pass across our minds as sound and nothing more until we see them acted out, in ways most marvellous, and with a literalness which is startling, in the lives of men like, yet so unlike, ourselves.
