never uttered a word and the only sign of his pain were his clenched fists (Caraman, 25–26).
During his recovery from these surgeries he read Life of Christ and Flos Sanctorum; the first being about Christ's life and teachings and the
second being a recounting of the lives of the saints. These books were the original catalyst to his conversion away from nobility and into the
