Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Helps for Students of History: A Guide to Franciscan Studies
A translation of The Writings of St. Francis of Assisi by Father Paschal Robinson was published at Philadelphia in 1906. The exact process by which the so-called First Rule acquired its present form is somewhat obscure, and it is certain that some points were included in and others excluded from the final Rule in opposition to the will of St. Francis.
