RETURNS TO AFRICA AND SUFFERS MARTYRDOM. 537 tremble, owing to the great glow of love, and its great desire to die for its Saviour? ?" 66 "He who We would here bring together at the close some short passages, in which the deep glowing spirit of this eminent man expressed itself-words which contain a world of meaning, and which a man must ponder deeply, in order rightly to understand and fully to fathom. "He who loves not, lives not; he who lives by the Life cannot die.” "He who gives his friend love, gives him more than untold gold.” gives not, lives not." "All gold is not to be compared with a sigh of holy desire." The more any one desires, the more will he know what it is to live. To be stript of desire is to die. Desire, and thou wilt live. He is not poor who desires; he lives sorrowfully who has no desire."* "A holy hermit stands higher in the favour of God than a king upon his throne. Elevate thy knowledge, and thou wilt elevate thy love. Heaven is not so high as the love of a holy man. The more thou labourest to ascend, so much more thou wilt ascend." He was aware that man carries in his own being the key for all men. He who would examine and understand the mysteries of other men, let him first look into himself, and into his own nature. For as a glass shows in itself the form of any other object, so man by knowing his own nature, perceives the secrets which he seeks for in others."+ 66 On the 14th of August, 1314, he again crossed over to Africa. He went to Buggia and laboured here first of all in secret, in the small circle of those persons whom he had won * Desidera et vives. Non est pauper qui desiderat. Plus valet suspirium in desiderio quam honor in principe. Qui non desiderat, non attingit. Tristis vivit qui non desiderat.-Raym. Lullus, Ibid. p. 38. † Sanctus eremita stat altior in voluntate Dei quam rex in throno. Quo plus valebis, eo altior eris. Eleva tuum intelligere, et elevabis tuum amare. Coelum non est tam altum, sicut amare sancti homines. Raym. Lullus, Lib. Proverb. tom. vi. p. 34. Qui vult inquirere et percipere secreta aliorum hominum, respiciat seipsum et suam naturam et suammet proprietatem ; quia, sicut unum speculum demonstrat formam alterius in seipso, ita homo cognoscendo suammet naturam percipit secreta quæ inquirit in aliis.-Raym. Lullus, Lib. Contempl. in Deum, cap. 174, § 25, tom. ix. p. 412. over to Christianity during his last sojourn. He endeavoured to strengthen their faith, and to advance them further in Christian knowledge. Thus he might have continued to labour for a long time unnoticed, but he could not repress the desire for martyrdom. He appeared in public, and declared that he was the same person who had formerly been banished from the country. He exhorted the people with threatenings of the divine punishment, if they refused to renounce Mohammedanism. He was attacked by the Saracens with extreme fury, and after being severely handled, was dragged out of the city, and stoned by the king's command. According to one account, some merchants from Majorca obtained permission to search for the corpse of their countryman in the heap of stones under which he was buried, and brought it back to Majorca; according to another account they found some remains of life in him, and succeeded in rekindling for awhile the sparks of life; but he died on ship-board, within sight of his native country, on the 30th of June, 1315.
