To conclude ; these are the virtues I desire you, my daughters, to possess, and endeavour to obtain, and which I would hav^e you envy in others with a holy emulation. Be not distressed if those other devotions, which are in themselves uncertain, should be denied you. For it might be that what in other persons was a gift of God, his Majesty might per- mit to be a devil's illusion in you, so that he may deceive you, as he has done others. Why be anxious to sen-e the Lord in things so doubtful, wh...en there is so much wherein you can serve him safely ? Who puts you in these dangers ? With this solemn warning on her lips, dictated by a rare spirit of good sense and moderation, she launches once more on her favourite theme, the contemplative life, endeavouring to smooth away the obstacles and dangers encountered by the novice in mysticism. Again the image of water haunts her mind : When God, sisters, shall bring you to drink this water — and you who now drink of it — you will delight in this, and know how the veritable love of God, if it has attained to its full strength, and already entirely free from earthly considerations soars above them, is master of all the elements of the world.
