The Abbot Milo _Urbi Et Orbi_, Concerning The Nature Of The Leopard


I Like This Good Man's Account Of Leopards, And Find It More Pertinent
To My Matter Than You Might Think. Milo Was A Carthusian Monk, Abbot Of
The Cloister Of Saint Mary-Of-The-Pine By Poictiers; It Was His
Distinction To Be The Life-Long Friend Of A Man Whose Friendships Were
Few: Certainly It May Be Said Of Him That He Knew As Much Of Leopards As
Any One Of His Time And Nation, And That His Knowledge Was Better
Grounded.
