Bear thee so that men who dwell with you may say of you as was said of the Apostles Paul and Barnabas, "The gods are made like men, and have come down to us." DEO gracias. The MS. is defective. On the 18th leaf of the MS. containing Our Daily Work begins Richard Rolle's Meditations on the Passion. A rendering of this is given in Fr.
"Oh, Barnabas!" he heard his father saying, though as from a long way off, "Barnabas lad, I I Oh, Barnabas they're going! They're leaving you, and it's all my fault, lad!
