The more you feel of tediousness, of oppression, or disgust, the more you must force your self to remain with courage, respect, & submission, before God, & for this reason, keeip your self always upon your knees, your hands joyned, & your eyes humbly cast down, with a submission of mind & heart, to the pain you suffer, & so sacrifice your self gene∣rously, without reserve, to the rigour of the divine justice: give no way to this oppression, permit your self to be crucified by all those wandrings of your mind, & by all those disquiets & troubles of your heart, & believe that in this state, God requires nothing else, then that you suffer with patience, humility, & submission to his will.
