## Life

A Neapolitan noble, cured of a disfiguring disease in youth, who co-founded the Minor Clerks Regular — vowed, uniquely, not to seek office — and added to their life perpetual adoration by turns. He begged for the poor, slept little, and died on the eve of Corpus Christi, at forty-four, eager to go to heaven.
