Excerpt from Life of St. Stephen Harding: Abbot of Citeaux and Founder of the Cistercian Order Holy men of old who have written the lives of Saints, universally begin by professing their unworthiness to be the historians of the marvellous deeds which the Holy Spirit has wrought in the Church. What then should we say, who in these miserable times, from the bosom of our quiet homes, or in the midst of our literary ease, venture to celebrate the glories of the Saints? We have much that is amiable and domestic amongst us, but Saints, the genuine creation of the cross, with their supernatural virtues, are now to us a matter of history. Nay, we cannot give up all for Christ, if we would; and while other portions of the Church can suffer for His sake, we must find our cross in sitting still, to watch in patience the struggle which is going on about us. Yet while we wait for better days, we may comfort ourselves with the contemplation of what her sons once were, and admire their virtues, though we have not the power, even though we had the will, to imitate them.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... 126 Chapter XV-A DAY AT OITEAUX St. Robert and St. Alberic had both a share in the establishment of the new monastery; it was Stephen, however, exclusively, who framed the order of the Cistercians. Before his time it was only a single convent; but under him it grew into the head of a vast monastic federacy, extending through every country in Europe. He was the author of the internal arrangement of this large body; and let no one suppose, that legislating for many thousands of monks is at all an easier task than settling the constitution of an equal number of citizerfs. Before, however, proceeding to consider Citeaux in this dignified capacity, as the queen and mother of an order, it will be well to go through the daily exercises of a Cistercian convent, that the reader may know what it is that is growing up before him. Suppose the monks all lying on their beds of straw, ranged in order along the dormitory, the abbot in the midst. Each of them lay full dressed, with his cowl drawn over his head, with his cuculla and tunic, and even with stockings on his feet* His scapular alone was dispensed with. Doubtless no one complained of heat, for the bed-clothes were scanty, consisting of a rough woollen cloth between their limbs and the straw, and a sort of woollen rug over them.* The long dormitory had no fire, and currents of air had * Us. Cist. 82. The rule says not only stockings but shoes: "Sine cuculla vero, tunica, caligis jacere non debent." Guignard, p. 187. A. de Jubainville, Abbayes Cisterciennes, p. 141.--E. t Calmet on c. 55 of St. Ben. Keg. full room to play under the unceiled roof, left in the native rudeness of its beams. A lamp lighted up the apartment, and burned all night long. At the proper hour the clock awoke the sacristan, ...

"Stephen Harding, the third abbot of Citeaux, is also an elusive historical figure. English by birth and a monk of Sherborne Abbey before the Norman Conquest, he journeyed to France and Rome before reentering monastic life at Molesme, only to leave with the founders of the New Monastery at Citeaux. From 1108 to 1133, the period of the first Cistercian expansion, he served as abbot and, some say, the formative genius behind the Cistercian Order. In this slender volume, Claudio Stercal gathers together all the documents that can with certainty be attributed to Stephen Harding and, by using them, creates a biography and then analyzes each in turn.'This is not a definitive study,' he writes,'but a collection of "working material'" which he presents in the hope of spurring further research on one of the most significant figures of the first decades of Cistercian history."--BOOK JACKET.
