The Life of St. Teresa of Jesus
Buch
Excerpt: ...I wish now to go on with the story of my life. Our Lord grant that I have been clear enough in what I have hitherto said!

Ch. xxv. § 26 . 2 . Ch. xv. § 6 . 3 . Ch. xxxiii. ; the foundation of the house of St. Joseph.…

Baltasar Alvarez gave of his own prayer to the General of the Society. 6 . See Relation, vii. § 7 . 7 . St. John of the Cross, Mount Carmel, bk. ii. ch. 22, § 14. 8 . The visions of the Saint began in 1558 (De la Fuente) or, according to Father Bouix, in 1559. 9 . St. Luke xvi. 28: Ne et ipsi veniant in hunc locum tormentorum. Chapter XXVII. The Saint Prays to Be Directed by a Different Way. Intellectual Visions. 1 . I now resume the story of my life.
