the wolves who tore themselves between them!
Oh

the false goods, of the untrue riches, the marvelous treasures
of the holy Poverty,: you taught them to taste the happiness
that doesn't exhaust itself, the only one that doesn't
cost anything, the joy of the tenderness, the divine charm
of life in the old Christian fraternity, God's kingdom,
the love.
