II. Thomas of Spalato
Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition
Sabatier, Paul and Houghton, Louise Seymour
An archdeacon of the Cathedral of Spalato, who in 1220 was studying at Bologna, has left us a very living portrait of St. Francis and the memory of the impression which his preachings produced in that learned town.5
Something of his enthusiasm has passed into his story; we feel that that day, August 15, 1220, when he met the Poverello of Assisi, was one of the best of his life.6
