As for the strange physical and psychical phenomena which sometimes accompany this state — sights and sounds and odours, a sensa- tion of burning heat in the breast, apparitions of various kinds — Hylton bids us " be wary. " He does not doubt that such things really take place, but it is by no means easy to determine whether they are sent by God or are a snare of the devil. The best test is to ask ourselves whether they tend to distract our minds from our devotions and from good actions. If the...y do, they are delusions sent MYSTICAL PHENOMENA 85 by the Evil One, and should not be attended to. Here we see traces of a difficulty which has greatly exercised the minds of Roman Catholic directors in later times. Roman Catholic books on mysticism consist largely of descriptions of " mystical phenomena, " and of cautions against being deceived by diabolical counterfeits. Nearly all the saints who have believed themselves to be the recipients of these special favours have also been plagued bv the wiles of the devil, who is most active and insidious in his attempts to trip up the holiest characters.
