Chapter IV.
Abbot Joseph’s question and our answer on the
origin of our anxiety.
Then the venerable Joseph
saw that we were in rather low spirits, and, guessing that this was not
the case without reason, addressed us in these words of the patriarch
Joseph: “Why are your faces sad today?”2014
to whom we answered: We are not like those
bond slaves of Pharaoh who have seen a dream and there is none to
interpret it, but I admit that we have passed a sleepless night and
there is no one to lighten the weight of our troubles unless the Lord
may remove them by your wisdom. Then he, who recalled the excellence of
the patriarch both by his merits and name, said: Does not the cure of
man’s perplexities come from the Lord? Let them be brought
forward: for the Divine Compassion is able to give a remedy for them by
means of our advice according to your faith.E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
