He also admitted some Portuguese, who had great talents for the mission,
and were inflamed with the zeal of souls.

They lived together in the college of St Paul, where that fervour
reigned, not only amongst the Jesuits, but also amongst those of the
seminary, whose number increased daily. The Japonese, Anger, was amongst
them, leading a most regular life, and breathing after that baptism,
which had been deferred till the return of the holy man.

Xavier did not satisfy himself with having instructed him anew; he

seemed even to burn him up. The mystery of the passion moved him above
all the rest; and he was so ravished with the goodness of God, so
