Abstract

ST BENEDICT SAID: Idleness is an enemy to the soul … the brethren ought to occupy themselves in the labour of their hands and at others in holy reading … from the fourth hour until the sixth let them apply themselves to reading from morning until the end of the third hour … in these days of Lent let each one receive a book from the library and read it all through in order … On Sunday let all apply themselves in reading.
