SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - SS Robert\, Alberic\, & Stephen
DESCRIPTION:THE BEGINNINGS OF THE \nCISTERCIAN ORDER \nA reading from the “Exordium Parvum” \n◊◊◊ \nWe Cistercians\, the first founders of this Church\, in this document hereby \nrelate to our successors how this Monastery and its way of life took its beginning \naccording to the Laws of Holy Mother the Church; by what authority it began\, \nand also by what persons and at what times; so that by the telling of the plain \nand unadulterated truth\, they may be moved to a deep love for this Monastery \nand for the observance of the Holy Rule of St Benedict which was begun in it by \nus through the Grace of God; and that they might pray for us who have borne the \nheat and the burden of the day without losing courage; that they might labor \nwith great fervor in the straight and narrow way which the Rule describes\, even \nunto complete union with God\, when\, having shed the garments of this flesh\, \nthey might happily rest in eternal peace. \nIn the year 1098\, Robert of blessed memory\, the first Abbot of the Church \nof Molesme founded in the Diocese of Langre\, together with some of the \nbrethren from the same Monastery\, came to the venerable Hugh\, who was at \nthat time the Legate of the Holy See and the Archbishop of the Church of Lyons\, \nstating that they desired to live their life under the guidance of the Holy Rule of \nFather Benedict\, and that in order that they might follow out these designs with \ngreater freedom and security\, they earnestly entreated him that he would bless \nand endorse their project with his Apostolic Authority. The Legate was happily \npleased with their desire\, and he laid the foundation of their beginnings by his \nLetter. \nAfter these affairs\, Robert and those who sided with him returned to \nMolesme and chose from that community of brethren those who wished to \nassociate with themselves\, brothers who had made their vows according to the \nRule; so that between those who had spoken to the Legate at Lyons and those \nwho had been chosen from the Monastery\, there were twenty-one monks. \nAccompanied by such a troop\, they made their way in all haste to the desert \nwhich was called Citeaux… Because of the thickness of the woods and \nundergrowth\, it was very rarely visited by people and it was inhabited by \nnothing but wild animals. \nWhen they arrived there\, the men of God immediately conceived a great \nand holy reverence for the place\, for the more contemptible and inaccessible it \nwas to the people of the world\, the more they considered it fit for their life. This \nwas the very reason for which they had come there. Far away and hidden by the \ndensity of trees and undergrowth\, they began to construct a monastery there \nwith the help of the Bishop of Chalons-sur-Saone and the consent of the one \nwho owned the property. For these men\, while they were still at Molesme\, \ninspired by the grace of God\, had frequently spoken among themselves about \nthe transgressions of the Rule of Blessed Benedict\, Father of Monks. They had \nlamented and grown sad in spirit\, seeing that both they and the rest of the \nmonks who had promised by their Solemn Profession that they would observe \nthis Rule\, kept that promise to a very small degree. On account of this\, by the \nauthority of the Holy See\, they came to this solitude in order that they might \nfulfill their profession by the observance of the Holy Rule.
