Lowly
Small flowers, violets, bluets and pussycat paws are blooming in the lawns and meadows of the abbey. These low-growing flowers, symbolic of humility, remind us of Our Blessed Lady and her Son risen from the dead.
True and False
Nothing should be held true merely because it is eloquently expressed, no false because it sounds harsh upon the lips. And a thing is not true because rudely uttered, nor is it false because its utterance is splendid. I have learned from you that wisdom is like wholesome food and folly like unwholesome food: they can be set forth in language ornate or plain, just as both kinds of food can be served on rich dishes or on peasant ware.
