The City And The World And Other Stories - 9781546653554

Was it ten years that Father Ramoni passed in South America? a tall novice asked Father Tomasso. "Ten years," said Father Tomasso. "He was the great preacher of Rome when the old General"-he nodded toward the cloister corner where Father Denfili prayed-"sent him away from Rome. No one knew why. His fame was at its height. Men and women of all the city crowded the church to listen to him, and he was but thirty-four years old. But Father Denfili sent him away to Marqua, commanding the Superior of our Order out there to send him to those far-off mountain people of whom the papers were telling at that time. I did not know Father Romani well. I was a novice at the time. But I knew that he did not want to go from Rome; though, being a good religious, he obeyed. Now, see what has happened. He has converted over one-third of that people, and the rest are only waiting for missionaries." "And the work is all Father Ramoni's?" the novice asked.
