hour from the village of the same name, on Mount San Pancrazio
(1026 m.), three leagues south of Narni. The panorama is one of
the finest in Central Italy. The Bollandists allowed themselves
to be led into error by an interested assertion when they placed
San Urbano near to Jesi (pp. 623f and 624a). 1 Cel., 61; Bon.,
68. (Vide Bull _Cum aliqua_ of May 15, 1218, where mention is
made of San Urbano.)
[13] As much may be said of the apparition of the three virgins
between Campilia and San Quirico. 2 Cel., 3, 37; Bon., 93.

[16] Two years after, the King of France and all his court
kissed and revered the pillow which Francis had used during his
illness. 1 Cel., 120.
[17] Bagnara is near the sources of the Topino, about an hour
east of Nocera. These two localities were then dependents of
Assisi.
[18] And not Sartiano. Balciano still exists, about half way
between Nocera and Assisi.

[20] 2 Cel., 3, 33; 1 Cel., 105, is still more explicit: "The
multitude hoped that he would die very soon, and that was the
subject of their joy."

[27] These words are borrowed from a long fragment cited by
Ubertini di Casali, as coming from Brother Leo: _Arbor vit.
cruc., lib._ v., _cap._ 3. It is surely a bit of the Legend of
the Three Companions; it may be found textually in the
Tribulations, Laur., f^o 16b, with a few more sentences at the
end. Cf. _Conform._, 136a, 2; 143a, 2; _Spec._, 8b; 26b; 50a;
130b; 2 Cel., 3, 118.

[29] See, for example, Brother Richer's question as to the
books: Ubertini, _Loc. cit._ Cf. _Archiv._, iii., pp. 75 and
177; _Spec._, 8a; _Conform._, 71b, 2. See also: Ubertini,
_Archiv._, iii., pp. 75 and 177; _Tribul._, 13a; _Spec._, 9a;
