BY reason of the great humility and simplicity that was in Bro∣ther Iuniperus, the deuils could not endure the vertue of his pray∣er, yet lesse his presence. It once happpened that one possessed trauailling in the fieldes with some of his freindes, he att their vnawares escaped from them and ran more then two leagues, none of his company
hauing power to follow him. Hauing att length found him where he stayed, and hauing coniured him to tell the truth, and the cause of this his sodaine and farre flight, he answeared it was by reason of that great foole Brother Iuniperus that came the way directly towardes vs: for I cannot endure his presence: they to know if this master lyer then spake the truth, did curiously search, and found that Brother Iuni∣perus came that way they were to goe, so that if the possessed had no•• fled, they had directly mett him. When the possessed personnes were brought to S. Francis if the deuill would not depart, he would thus threaten him: If thou dost not presently depart out of this body, I will send for Brother Iuniperus who shall chastice thee according to thy deserts. The deuill fearing the presence of this holy Religious, would presently flye.
