Speaker 1 (00:00):
Section thirteen of the Life of Saint Dominic Savio by
Saint John Bosco. This LibriVox recording is in the public domain,
Chapter twenty three, His Last Moments and Holy Death. It
is one of the maxims of our faith that at
the hour of death we reap the fruit of our
good works during life. Quay semiinavitt homo heike admit it. However,
(00:24):
it sometimes happens that good, pious people experience fear and
dread at the approach of death. This is in accordance
with the adorable decrees of God, who wishes to purify
those souls from the small stains they may have contracted,
so that they may increase their merit in heaven. It
was not thus with Dominic Savio. It is my conviction
(00:44):
that God deigned to give him the hundredfold which he
bestows upon the souls of the just, as a preliminary
to the glory of paradise. And indeed, the innocence which
he preserved the last moment of his life, his generous faith,
his habit of constant prayer, his mortifications, and the sufferings
which had, as it were, beset his life certainly merited
(01:05):
that consolation for him at the hour of death. Hence
it was that he perceived his end approaching with the
tranquility of an innocent soul. It would seem that he
did not feel even this suffering and oppressiveness, which are
natural outcome of the efforts of the soul to break
the bonds by which it is united to the body.
In short, Savio's death was more like the passing into
a peaceful slumber. By the evening of March ninth, he
(01:27):
had received all the constellations of our holy religion. Anyone
listening to his voice or noticing his cheerful countenance would
have thought he was lying in bed for a little rest.
His bright manner, his looks still full of life, the
complete possession of his senses quite astonished everyone, and nobody
except himself believed him to be on the point of death.
An hour and a half before he passed away, the
(01:50):
parish priest came to see him, and, seeing how calm
he was, he was surprise to hear him recommending his
soul to God. He continued to make aspirations and short ejaculations,
expressing his desire to go speedily to heaven. The priest remarked,
I am at a loss to know what to suggest
for the recommendation of a soul of this sort. He
recited some prayers and was about to leave when Dominic
(02:12):
asked him for some final thought by way of souvenir.
The priest said he could recommend nothing to him but
the thought of the sacred passion. Dominic thanked him for
this and continued to recall it and to repeat invocations
to Jesus and Mary. Then he rested for about half
an hour. At the end of that time, he turned
to his parents and said, father, it is time. The
father replied, I am here, my son. What would you like?
(02:34):
It is time, father, get my prayer book and read
the prayers for a good death. At these words, the
mother began to weep and had to go out of
the room. The father was greatly moved, but he restrained
his grief so as to read the prayers. Dominic repeated
them after him, and in the proper place said by himself,
merciful Jesus, have mercy on me. When they came to
the part which says, but deigned to receive me into
(02:56):
Thy kingdom, where I may forever sing Thy praises. Dominic added, yes,
that is exactly what I desire to sing the praises
of God for all eternity. He now seemed to rest
a moment, as though pondering over something in his mind.
Then he opened his eyes again and said, with a
clear voice and a smiling countenance, good bye, Father, good bye.
The priest wanted to tell me something else, but I
cannot remember it now. Oh what a beautiful sight I behold,
(03:19):
thus saying, with his hands joined in a heavenly smile,
his soul passed away. Yes, go forth, faithful soul, to
meet thy creator. Heaven is open to thee, and the
angels and saints are rejoicing for thee. Jesus, whom you
loved so much, invites you and says, come, good and
faithful servant, Thou hast fought and won the victory. Come
and enjoy that happiness which will never fail. Inshaw and
(03:41):
Gaudium dominitui. End of Chapter twenty three. Chapter twenty four
the news of his death remarkable testimony. The last words
uttered by Dominic, as related in the preceding chapter, did
not give his father the impression that he was dying.
He thought he was again falling into a brief period
(04:01):
of repose. He went out of the room for a
few minutes, and on his return spoke to Dominic, But
there was no reply, and he perceived that he really
had expired. The grief of the parents and their desolation
at the loss of such a son may be well imagined.
News was most anxiously awaited at the oratory. A letter
was despatched to me in haste by his father, and
(04:22):
when I read I have sad news for you, I
concluded that all was over. He went on to say,
our dear son, your pupil, gave up his soul to
God yesterday evening with the innocence of another saint, O looisis,
and after receiving the holy sacrament in a most edifying manner.
There was consternation at the oratory when I told the boys.
Some were in grief at the loss of such a
(04:42):
true friend, others at being deprived of a valuable adviser,
and all missed the inspiring example of his virtuous life.
Some gathered together to say a prayer for him, but
the greater number declared that they were sure he was
a saint and already in paradise. Some began immediately to
invoke his intercession and there was a general endeavor to
get something that had belonged to him as a relic
(05:03):
the master of the class that he attended at in Turin,
Father Pico, announced the sad tidings to his boys in
these words. A short time ago, I happened to speak
to you about the uncertainty of human life, and I
pointed out that death does not spare even those who
are in the spring time of youth. On that occasion,
I had an example in one of the boys who
had been a pupil of this very class, a boy
(05:24):
full of life and vigor, and yet after a few
days absence, we heard that he had been taken ill
and had passed away, to the great sorrow of his
parents and relations. When I brought forth that example, I
little thought that this year would be saddened by a
similar occurrence, that such an instance would be repeated in
the case of one who was sitting here listening to me,
Death has carried off one of your companions, Dominic Savio.
(05:46):
You may remember that he was not very well when
he was here last, and then had to stay away
from the classes altogether. The doctors advised his removal to
his native place, and there he died after only four
days of illness. Yesterday I read the letter from his
father in which he makes the sad announcement, and the
picture he draws of the boy's saintly death moved me
to tears. He could find no more suitable expression to
(06:07):
apply to his beloved son than to call him another Saint.
Elisis both on account of the holiness of his life
and his resignation and death, I leave to his superiors
at the Oratory to describe the holiness of his life,
the intensity of his fervor and piety. I must allow
his companions and friends, who are in daily contact with him,
to describe the gentleness and modesty of his demeanor, and
(06:28):
the careful restraint he exercised over his words. As far
as he came under my direction. He always deserved the
highest praise for his behavior, his diligence, and exactness, And
it would afford me the greatest consolation if all of
you would resolve to follow his example. Well, he was
at the oratory, but had not yet begun to attend
these classes. His diligence and piety won for him the
(06:48):
highest reputation. So rapid was his progress that I was
most anxious for him to come, and I had the
highest possible hopes for his future career. I had met
him sometimes in my visits to the use oratory, had
been struck by the innocence of his life and the
winning gentleness of his disposition, and had been drawn to
him in a particular manner during the time that he
(07:09):
attended these classes. He fulfilled my expectations perfectly, and all
of your witnesses to his excellent conduct in many details
which most boys consider beneath their notice. He was scrupulously exact,
and by the fervor and recollection he brought to all
his actions, he sanctified his whole day and made it
an acceptable offering in the sight of God. Such conduct
(07:29):
is worthy of imitation. It would bring consolation to parents
and teachers, and all blessings and happiness to the boys themselves.
Dominic gave us an example of how a life should
be spent in the service of God, in contrast to
those youths who seemed to be in ignorance of the
end for which they were created, or whose stifle the
good dispositions that come to every soul. Reflect on the
(07:50):
example of Savio, and it will help you to spend
your life and the service of your creator, and to
be prepared to give an account when the time comes.
If I notice an improvement in work and behavior, I
shall regard it as obtained by the intercession of Dominic,
and as a reward for having been associated with him,
if only for a short time. Thus did Father Pico
announce the death of one of his most promising pupils,
(08:12):
and evince the general sorrow at his loss. End of
Chapter twenty four Chapter twenty five, The influence of Dominic's
virtues favors received a recommendation. Even after such a brief
description of his life, it will not be surprising that
God deigned to honor his servant Dominic Savio with special
(08:34):
marks of honor, which made his virtues shine forth the brighter.
During his life, many had depended for guidance on his
advice and bent encouraged by his example. Others had recommended
their intentions to his prayers, and they had often been
answered in a striking manner. It was natural, therefore, that
after his death, confidence in his intercession should rapidly spread.
(08:56):
As soon as the news of his death reached us,
many of his companions went about openly proclaiming him to
be a saint. When the usual prayers were being offered
for him and the litany was recited, they did not
think it necessary or proper to say pray for him,
but continued the customary pray for us. Dominic has gone
to heaven, they said, and can need no prayers from us.
Others said, if Dominic, with his innocent life and good works,
(09:19):
has not gone to heaven, who will ever get there.
Thus it was that, by degrees he had become a
regular model for the example of all, and was regarded
as a powerful protector and intercessor in heaven. Almost every
day I received accounts of temporal and spiritual graces received.
Illnesses were cured, sometimes immediately. I myself was a witness
of an instantaneous cure of yellow fever. This confidence in
(09:43):
the intercession of Dominic was greatly increased by an assertion
made in the strongest terms by his father. He says,
I was in the greatest affliction at the loss of
my son, and was consumed by a desire to know
what was his position in the other world. God deigned
to comfort me. About a month after Unter his death,
during a very restless night I saw, as it were,
the ceiling opened, and Dominic appeared in the midst of
(10:05):
a dazzling light. I was beside myself at this sight,
and cried out, Oh, Dominic, my son, are you already
in paradise? Yes, he replied, I am in heaven. Then
pray for your brothers and sisters, and your mother and father,
that we may all come to join you one day
in heaven. Yes, yes, I will pray, was the answer.
Then he disappeared, and the room became as before this
(10:26):
the father asserts to be the simple truth. I have
before me many documents containing accounts of favors received through
Dominic's intercession. The character and authority of the writers are
beyond question, but as most of them are still alive,
I shall not insert them for the present. There is
one related here of a grace obtained by a student
who had been a companion of Dominic's. In the year
(10:47):
eighteen fifty eight. These young man's health became very precarious.
In fact, it had broken down so badly that he
had to interrupt his courcive philosophy, take every precaution, and
at the end of the year he could not present
himself for examination However, there was a later examination towards
the end of the year, and he thought he might
be able to prepare for that and thus prevent the
(11:08):
loss of a whole year in the course of his studies.
But his health continued to decline, and his hopes gradually
died away. During the autumn vacation, he had a change
of air and rest, and this seemed to give him
renewed strength, so that he returned to Turin and applied
himself to his studies. But again his health broke down,
and he was in a worse state than ever, so
(11:28):
that he saw there was no possibility of application to
study or of taking an examination. It was then, he says,
that the accounts of the favors obtained by Dominicsavio struck
me particularly, and I determined to make a novena to
obtain the assistance of this former associate of mine. Certain
prayers were said daily, and I made a special appeal
on account of my previous intimacy with him, we having
(11:51):
been in the same class in striving for the first place.
About the fifth day, my health was suddenly much better,
and I immediately took to my books. I seem to
master the subjects with great ease, and took the examination.
Nor was it a short lived favor, for my health
has remained since perfect, and two months have now elapsed
since I was ill. I cannot but recognize that this
(12:12):
grace was obtained from God by the intercession of my
companion and friend. With this fact, I shall bring the
life of Dominic Savia to a close. In an appendix,
other favors are related, which seem to be conducive to
the glory of God and the good of souls. But
dear reader, before parting, I should like to repose some
little resolution which may be of service to you, and
(12:32):
to myself and to others. I should like you to
join with me to a resolution to imitate Youngsaviu and
the practice of the virtues which are compatible with our state.
In his own position, he lived a most happy, virtuous
and innocent life, which was crowned by holy death. If
we imitate his manner of life, we shall be assured
of being like him in our last moments. But he
is chiefly worthy of imitation in frequenting the sacrament of confession,
(12:56):
which was his support, and the constant practice of virtue.
His guidance are through life and his consolation at the
hour of death. Frequent and devout use should be made
of this sacrament, so conducive to salvation. But every time
we do so, let us give a thought to our
last confession, in order to make sure that it has
been properly made, And when there is need for so doing,
we should apply remedies to the defects. It seems to
(13:18):
me that this is the safest means to spend happy
days in the midst of the troubles of life, at
the end of which we shall calmly await the moment
of death. Then, with our minds at rest and a
smile on our lips, we shall go forth to meet
our divine Lord, who will graciously welcome us, and, judging
us according to his great mercy, will lead us both,
I trust, dear reader, from the trials of this life
(13:39):
to a happy eternity. End of Chapter twenty five.

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
