"You will find some men to be faithful and kind and they will receive you gladly; but you will also find many who are unfaithful, proud, and blasphemous, and they will insult and injure you and your words. Therefore prepare your hearts to suffer everything humbly and patiently."
When the brothers heard these words they began to be afraid, but St. Francis said to them: "Do not fear; before long many noble and wise men will join us, kings and princes, too, with numbers of men, and very many people will be converted to the Lord and he will multiply and increase this family in the whole world."
