Narrationes animae utiles, De monacho superbo Wortley, "A Repertoire" : Disguised as a refugee officer, Satan deposited some gold and two servants, a boy and a girl, with a monk who aspired to be as one of the patriarchs of the Old Testament. The monk ravished the girl and killed the boy; he fled, and built himself an oratory elsewhere. The "officer" returned and raised a protest, so the monk fled again. He came to a town where he married the orphaned daughter of the town executioner, whose responsibilities he had to assume. Once again the "officer" appeared, demanding his property. All was revealed and the monk was led to the scaffold, with Satan taunting him all the way for having set his sights too high. Éditions Ed. (p. 357-363) d'après 7 mss. Coislin 126, 232 et 283, Vat. S. Petri C 149, Marc. II 101, Paris gr. 1596 et Athen 494
