Evangelical Envy

Tunic worn by St. Francis found in Cortuna, Italy

O enviable envy! O emulation to be emulated by his sons! This is not that envy that is grieved over the goods of others; it is not that envy that is darkened by the rays of the sun; not that envy that is opposed to kindness; not that envy that is nurtured by spite. Do you think that evangelical poverty has nothing about it to be envied?

Saint Francis of Assisi
Celano, Second Life
Chapter LI
