raculis sancti Patris compilavit, quem cum epistola quae incipit: Religiosa vestra sollicitudo eidem generali misit_. This treatise on the miracles is lost, for one cannot identify it, as M. Mueller suggests (_Anfaenge_, p. 177), with the second part (counting three with the Amoni edition) of the Second Life: 1^o, epistle _Religiosa vestra sollicitudo_ does not have it; 2^o, this second part is not a collection of miracles, using this word in the sense of miraculous cures which it had in the thirteenth century. The twenty-two chapters of this second part have a marked unity; they might be entitled _Francis a prophet_, but not _Francis a thaumaturgus_. [63] In the Prologue (2 Cel., 2, Prol.) _Insignia patrum_ the author speaks in the singular, while the Epilogue is written in the name of a group of disciples. [64] Greccio, 2 Cel., 2, 5; 14; 3, 7; 10; 103.--Rieti, 2 Cel., 2, 10; 11; 12; 13; 3, 36; 37; 66; 103. [65] St. Francis gives him an autograph, 2 Cel., 2, 18. Cf. _Fior._ ii. _consid._; his tunic, 2 Cel., 2, 19; he predicts to him a famine, 2 Cel., 2, 21; cf. _Conform._, 49b. Fr. Leo ill at Bologna, 2 Cel., 3, 5. [66] The text of Ubertini di Casali may be found in the _Archiv._, t. iii., pp. 53, 75, 76, 85, 168, 178, where Father Ehrle points out the corresponding passages of 2 Cel. [67] It is the subject of thirty-seven narratives (1, 2 Cel., 3, 1-37), then come examples on the spirit of prayer (2 Cel., 3, 38-44), the temptations (2 Cel., 3, 58-64), true happiness (2 Cel., 3, 64-79), humility (2 Cel., 3, 79-87), submission (2 Cel., 3, 88, 91), etc. [68] Le Monnier, t. i., p. xi.; F. Barnabe, _Portiuncula_, p. 15. Cf. _Analecta fr._, t. ii., p. xxi. _Zeitschrift fuer kath. Theol._, vii. (1883), p. 397. [69] _Il piu antico poema della vita di S. Francisco d'Assisi scritto inanzi all' anno 1230 ora per la prima volta pubblicato et tradotto da Antonio Cristofani_, Prato, 1882, 1 vol., 8vo. 288 pp. [70] Note, however, two articles of the Miscellanea, one on the manuscript of this biography which is found in the library at Versailles, t. iv. (1889), p. 34 ff.; the other on the author of the poem, t. v. (1890), pp. 2-4 and 74 ff. [71] See below, p. 410. [72] Vide G
