To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But I who am more ready to go forward than backward, never continue in one stay, because changes sevenfold pass over me. Yet it quickly becometh better when it so pleaseth Thee, and Thou puttest forth Thy hand to help me ; because Thou alone canst aid without help of man, and canst so strengthen me that my coun- tenance shall be no more changed, but my heart shall be turned to Thee, and rest in Thee alone.
3. Wherefore, if I but knew well how to reject all human consolations, whether for the sa...ke of gaining devotion, or because of the necessity by which I was compelled to seek Thee, seeing there is no man who can comfort me ; then could I worthily trust in Thy grace, and rejoice in the gift of new consolation.
4. Thanks be to Thee, from whom all cometh, whensoever it goeth well with me ! But I am vanity and nothing in Thy sight, a man inconstant and weak. What then have I whereof to glory, or why do I long to be held in honour ? Is it not for nought ? This also is utterly vain. Verily 241 vain glory is an evil plague, the greatest of vanities, because it draweth us away from the true glory, and robbeth us of heavenly grace.
