How to meditate by meane of the Angells, and of al the B. Saints.
The Aungelles, and all the Saints in heauen may be ano∣ther potent means, the which will serue thee two manner of wayes. The one is, that thou turne thy selfe to the eternall father, and present vnto him the loue and praises, wherwith
he is exalted by all the celesti∣all court, and the labours and trauells which the Saints haue sustained for him in earth, and in the vertue of al these things craue thou his diuine aid. The other is, that thou haue re∣course to those glorious sprits, as to them that do, not only de∣sire thy perfection, but also, that thou mayest be placed in a most high roume amongest them, demaund their succour in thy combate against vice, & sometimes also their defence at the houre of thy death.
Thou shalt also nowe and then purposely considder the many and singular graces they haue receiued of the highest Creator, stirring vp in thy self a liuely feeling of loue, and ioy
that they posses so great gifts, as if the same were thine own, yea and more also thou shalt reioyce that they, & not thou had them, sith that the will of God was so. And that thou mayest doe this exercise with the better order, and more fa∣cilitie, thou shalt diuide the quiers of that blessed compa∣ny, by dayes of the weeke in this manner:
But omitte not anye day to haue recourse to the glorious Virgine, to thy Angells guar∣dian, to S. Michael the Arch∣angel, and to som other Saint, to whom thou must haue par ticular deuotion.
