To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
102 THE INCARNATION OF THE LORD was the voluntary poverty of his disciples for his sake and for the sake of his kingdom and for the welfare of mankind ; of those and those only who voluntarily became poor and voluntarily remained poor. Jesus had to restrain himself to a most extraor- dinary degree in order to remain poor. Why, said the devil, should he suffer hunger when he could transform stones into bread ? Why should he remain homeless to whom the throne of the world was open ? Why should he... suffer grief and pain who had authority over life and death ? He satisfied the hunger of the multitude. He preferred to suffer hunger himself. He saved others from pain and sickness and death. Him- self he did not save. He became poor to enrich us. He remained poor to enrich the people. He died poor to enrich mankind. He made it evident to the world for all time that the holiest of men, tlie wisest of men, the greatest of men, could live a life of voluntary poverty from the cradle to the grave.
