St. Odo, Abbot of Cluny : ウィキペディア英語版
Odo of Cluny

Odo of Cluny (French: ''Odon'') ( 878 – 18 November 942 AD) was the second abbot of Cluny. He enacted various reforms in the Cluniac system of France and Italy. He is venerated as a Saint by the Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodox Church and his feast day is 18 November.
There is only one contemporary biography of him, the ''Vita Odonis'' written by John of Salerno.
==Early life==
Saint Odo was the son of Abbo, a feudal lord of Deols, near Le Mans. Abbo was a very devout man who would frequently recite the precepts of the gospel to those around him.
According to Odo's later disciple John, before Odo was born, Abbo went on his knees one Christmas in the middle of the night and asked God for the gift of a son, because he still had not had a son. His wife's name was Arenberga, and even though she was too old to bear children, she nevertheless became pregnant and gave birth to a son.〔Lucy Margaret Smith, The early history of the monastery of Cluny, Oxford University Press,1920〕
According to the same source, when Odo was a baby, his father was fearful of the child's safety and so one day when he found the baby alone, he took Odo up in his arms and prayed to St Martin of Tours saying, 'Oh, gem of saints, receive this child.‘〔Lucy Margaret Smith, The early history of the monastery of Cluny, Oxford University Press,1920〕
His father later sent Odo to receive education from a priest in a far away district. This priest one day was visited by the apostles Peter and Paul who demanded that the child be given to their service, and the priest was terrified by this apparition, and he begged the saints to let the boy free. Peter and Paul then said they would do so, but only for a time. The patron saints of Cluny Abbey were in fact Peter and Paul.〔Lucy Margaret Smith, The early history of the monastery of Cluny, Oxford University Press,1920〕
When Odo became a teenager, his father saw how physically strong he was and he felt like he had made the wrong decision by making him go in to a career in the church and instead decided he should have a military career. His father then stopped his education and sent him to work as a page at the court of William the Pious, duke of Aquitaine, where he passed his days in hunting and military exercises. However, Odo felt deeply dissatisfied with his life there, and when he was sixteen he suffered so much that his father told him to pray to the saints for help. On Christmas Day he felt such deep reproach like his life was not pleasing to Christ and he then turned to the Virgin Mary, praying to her for help. But after he said this prayer he began to have a terrible pain in his head that continued for three years.〔Lucy Margaret Smith, The early history of the monastery of Cluny, Oxford University Press,1920〕
Abbo then remembered the prayer he had made to Saint Martin when his son was a baby, because he feared the baby would not survive. His son then grew up very healthy and strong, almost like it was an answer to the prayer. But his son was healthy so much so, that Abbo then forgot his original prayer and put his son in a military career. But his son was now suffering so greatly. Abbo felt like this was all a sign from Martin, and he prayed again to Martin, 'Behold, what gratefully I offered exactly thou hast required. Truly as is fitting thou art quick to hear our vows but expensive art thou in business.'〔Lucy Margaret Smith, The early history of the monastery of Cluny, Oxford University Press,1920〕
Abbo then told Odo about the story, and Odo left William's court to go to Tours, the site of Martin's shrine, and he vowed to Martin that he would give himself to Martin's service. He then went to the monastery of St. Martin of Tours to live a religious life as a canon.
