Excerpt from Cardinal Lavigerie: Primate of Africa The Bishop perceived the latent virtues Of the young man, and his Spanish imagination yielded perhaps to a transient enthusiasm or 'to an ambitious dream. He drew me towards him, ' says Lavigerie, and he caressed me with his Venerable hands, and he said to me: SO you have, my child, a vocation to the priesthood? Yes, Bishop, I replied. And why do you wish to be a priest? He asked. In order that I may have a country parish, I answered. My father was astonished, for he did not know that I had such rural tastes, but the Bishop, smilingly, said to me You will go to the Seminary of Larresorre, and then you will be whatever God wishes.
