To Brother Leo
To Brother Leo
Brother Leo, wish your brother Francis health and peace!
I say to you: Yes, my son, and as a mother; for in this word and counsel I sum up briefly all the words we said on the way, and if afterwards you need to come to me for advice, thus I advise you:
In whatever way it seems best to you to please the Lord God and to follow His footsteps and poverty, so do with the blessing of the Lord God and in my obedience.
And if it be necessary for you on account of your soul or other consolation and you wish, Leo, to come to me, come!
