Brother Masseo replied that Christ had answered both Brother Sylvester and Sister Clare and her companion and revealed that, "He wants you to go about the world preaching, because God did not call you for yourself alone but also for the salvation of others."
And then the hand of the Lord came over St. Francis. As soon as he heard this answer and thereby knew the will of Christ, he got to his feet, all aflame with divine power, and said to Brother Masseo with great fervor: "So let's go - in the name of the Lord!"
