O how often, when he sat down to eat, hearing or speaking of Jesus, St. Francis forgot bodily food, as we read of the holy one, "Seeing, he did not see, and hearing he did not hear." Indeed, many times, as he went along the way meditating on and singing of Jesus, he would forget his journey and invite all the elements to praise Jesus.
