i., p. 559. _A papa Innocentis fuit omnibus annuntiatum in
concilio generali ... sicut sanctus vir fr. Leo scribit et fr.
Johannes de Celano._ These lines have not perhaps the
significance which one would be led to give them at the first
glance, their author having perhaps confounded _consilium_ and
_consistorium_. The Speculum, 20b says: _Eam (Regulam
Innocentius) approvabit et concessit et postea in consistorio

[6] Thomas of Celano must be in error when he declares that
Francis was not acquainted with Cardinal Ugolini before the
visit which he made him at Florence (summer of 1217): _Nondum
alter alteri erat præcipua familiaritate conjunctus_ (1 Cel., 74
and 75). The Franciscan biographer's purpose was not historic;
chronological indications are given in profusion; what he seeks
is the _apta junctura_. Tradition has preserved the memory of a
chapter held at Portiuncula in presence of Ugolini during a stay
of the curia at Perugia (_Spec._, 137b.; _Fior_., 18;
_Conform._, 207a; 3 Soc., 61). But the curia did not come back
