1. In the beginning the First Principle, from whom all other [cunctae] illuminations descend as
from the Father of lights, by whom is every best gift and every perfect gift, that is the Eternal Father,
I do invoke through His Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, with the intercession of the Most Holy Virgin
Mary, the same Mother [genetricis] of Our God and Lord Jesus Christ, and of blessed Francis, our
leader and father, to grant that the eyes of our mind (be) illumined to direct our feet in the way of
His peace, which exceeds [exuperat] every sense; which peace Our Lord Jesus Christ has proclaimed
[evangelizavit] and has given; the renewer [repetitor] of whose preaching was our Father Francis,
announcing at the beginning and end of all his preaching peace, in every salutation choosing peace,
in every contemplation longing towards ecstatic peace, as a citizen of that Jerusalem, concerning
which that man of peace speaks, who with those who hate peace, was peaceable: Ask for those
things which are for the peace of Jerusalem. For he knew, that the throne of Solomon was not but
in peace, since it was written: In peace is made His place, and His dwelling in Sion. ( The Journey of the Mind Into God
by
Saint Bonaventure of Bagnoregio )
