The Hermit Fathers is an account of the virtuous asceticism and
admirable ways of life of the holy and blessed wilderness fathers.
They are meant to inspire and instruct those who want to imitate
their heavenly lives, so that they may make progress on the way
that leads to the kingdom of heaven. The holy fathers who were the
initiators and masters of the blessed monastic way of life, being
entirely on fire with divine and heavenly love and counting as
nothing at all that men hold to be beautiful and estimable, trained
themselves on earth to do nothing whatsoever out of vainglory. They
hid themselves away, and by their supreme humility in keeping most
of their good works hidden, they made progress on the way that
leads to God. Moreover, no one has been able to describe their
virtuous lives for us in detail, for those who have taken the
greatest pains in this matter have only committed to writing a few
fragments of their more admirable deeds and words. In this book you
will find twenty eight examples of the lives of those Holy men and
women which are sweeter than honey and honeycomb.
