Benedict, Saint, Abbot of Monte Cassino and Doyle, Leonard J. (Leonard Joseph)
A brother who is sent out on some business and is expected to return to the monastery that same day shall not presume to eat while he is out, even if he is urgently requested to do so by any person whomsoever, unless he has permission from his Abbot. And if he acts otherwise, let him be excommunicated.
