"Be not solicitous for the morrow."

The Life of Saint Anthony
Saint Athanasius
The Newman Press
1950


















Introduction

Saint Anthony's end
was to be an ascetic
in the eyes of God. 
Prayer, fasting, and manual
labor were the daily means. 

Prologue

Anthony's strife is
the ideal pattern for the
ascetical life. 
Demonic temptations are
the rule, not the exception.
