[1] Suspected of having leprosy, he was ejected from the house lest the sickness spread.
[2] When it was seen that he did not have leprosy, Aimo was allowed to become a professed monk and was ordained a priest.
He was entrusted with supervising the lay brothers, who were as much servants as monks, many with little religious sensibility; but he loved them and many learned spirituality from him.
