Fear To Look Upon The Bride Of Christ!


Once it happened, when St. Francis was going to Bevagna, that he preached to a mother and her daughter, a virgin vowed to God. But while he preached to them, he did not look either of them in the face. When they departed his companion said to Francis: "Why, Brother, did you not look at the holy virgin who came with such great devotion?" The father answered: "Who must not fear to look upon the bride of Christ? But when a sermon is preached with the eyes and the face she looks at me, but not I at her."

Saint Francis of Assisi
Celano, Second Life
CHAPTER LXXX
