" Dante had the same thoughts in mind when he wrote that passage in the Earthly Paradise where he describes a beautiful lady slowly walking over the green meadow, singing and weaving garlands of flowers in her hands, and who, on being asked by Virgil why she sang, referred him to the words of the ninety-se- cond Psalm: "Thou, Lord, hast made me glad through thy works. " Ruskin has said of this passage that it is "the most important in re- gard to nature love in the whole circle of poe- try ; fo...r it contains the first great confession of the discovery by the human race that their hap- piness was not in themselves and that their la- 19 &aint Stands of Kemi bor was not to have their own service as its chief end. " Saint Francis had a personal love for all ani- mals, for the birds of the air, the beasts of the field, the fish of the sea. The ants alone incurred hisdislike, "because, " says FraEgidio, "of their excess of prudence in gathering and laying away stores of grain. " Nor can we blame him much, for frugality and thrift are useful quali- ties, but one could hardly call them lovable.
