  8  Unic,   2     |           very good and chaste, I learned nothing, whereas from a
  9  Unic,   2     |          often had in the house I learned every kind of evil. This
 10  Unic,   2     |                  From this I have learned what great advantage comes
 11  Unic,   3     | understand the truth, which I had learned as a child, that all things
 12  Unic,   5     |    consulted those who are really learned; but a truly learned man
 13  Unic,   5     |       really learned; but a truly learned man has never led me astray.
 14  Unic,   5     |          Father,84 who was a very learned man, undeceived me about
 15  Unic,   6     |        and kinsfolk and those who learned from me. But in other respects

 17  Unic,   7     |      because by means of prayer I learned more and more about my faults.

 20  Unic,  12     |            especially if they are learned, for learning, I think,
 21  Unic,  12     |       that this was so in certain learned men, who began but a short
 22  Unic,  12     |           longings that many more learned men should become spiritual,
 23  Unic,  13     |         word for this, for I have learned it by experience; this mere
 24  Unic,  13     |       experienced one: if he is a learned man as well, that is a very
 25  Unic,  13     |           always possible to find learned men to consult when necessary.
 26  Unic,  13     |        have no communication with learned men, for I should prefer
 27  Unic,  13     |        should try to consult some learned person, if he can, and the
 28  Unic,  13     |           if he can, and the more learned this person, the better.
 29  Unic,  13     |        the mistake of saying that learned men who do not practise
 30  Unic,  13     |         practises prayer consults learned men, the devil will not
 31  Unic,  13     |           are very much afraid of learned men who are humble and virtuous,
 32  Unic,  13     |    because some people think that learned men, if they are not spiritual,
 33  Unic,  13     |           us very much to consult learned men, provided they are virtuous;
 34  Unic,  13     |      women, and those who are not learned, ought always to give Him
 35  Unic,  13     |            I am often amazed that learned men, and religious in particular,
 36  Unic,  13     |      forbid it be so! I see these learned fathers bearing the trials
 37  Unic,  14     |    purposes it is necessary to be learned; and it would be very useful
 38  Unic,  15     |              that is, of the most learned reasoning -- which, in our
 39  Unic,  15     |       will be good advice for the learned men who are commanding me

 42  Unic,  18     |       doubt I was freed by a very learned man of the Order of the
 43  Unic,  19     |          Saint Dominic,149 a very learned man, for it was he who awakened
 44  Unic,  20     |        and that later, when I had learned it, it was a comfort to
 45  Unic,  20     |           grown new wings and has learned to fly. Now the little bird
 46  Unic,  22     |           view, for it is held by learned and spiritual men, who know
 47  Unic,  22     |           taught me, I could have learned little from books, for until
 48  Unic,  22     |           me by experience what I learned was nothing at all; I did
 49  Unic,  22     |            very many times have I learned this by experience: the
 50  Unic,  22     |         shorter road. What I have learned is this: that the entire
 51  Unic,  23     |                 They told me of a learned cleric who lived in that
 52  Unic,  23(184)|          Gaspar Daza, a pious and learned priest who for some time
 53  Unic,  25     |          cautiously, and choose a learned man for our director, and
 54  Unic,  25     |        than I, and they were also learned men: how, then, could I
 55  Unic,  25     |       never fail Thee.201 Let all learned men rise up against me,
 56  Unic,  26     |           peace, since we are not learned, but if we do what I say
 57  Unic,  27     |           other distinguished and learned men have told me the same
 58  Unic,  27     |       knowledge, can describe it: learned men will explain it better.
 59  Unic,  27     |           one who, without having learned anything, or having taken
 60  Unic,  27     |        soul suddenly finds itself learned, and the mystery of the
 61  Unic,  28     |     reality. That is a matter for learned men to explain. The Lord
 62  Unic,  28     |       Jesus,223 gave them -- so I learned -- the same reply. He was
 63  Unic,  29     |       would see that my confessor learned the truth. When they made
 64  Unic,  30     |        was a friend of mine236 -- learned that this great man was
 65  Unic,  30     |         her upon matters of which learned men were ignorant. My confessors
 66  Unic,  30     |          her soul. Well, when she learned that this holy man was here,
 67  Unic,  30     |        this is folly. What I have learned is that the Lord is pleased
 68  Unic,  30     |         greatly distressed, until learned men, and the blessed Fray
 69  Unic,  30     |           possesses if it has not learned by experience what it is
 70  Unic,  31     |       From long experience I have learned that there is nothing like
 71  Unic,  31     |          should leave him; this I learned from letters, for I wrote
 72  Unic,  31     |   Dominican friar, who was a very learned man, gave me a clear explanation
 73  Unic,  32     |           matter over with a very learned man, a most devout servant
 74  Unic,  32     |         that time he was the most learned man in the place, and there
 75  Unic,  32     |            and there are few more learned than he in his entire Order.
 76  Unic,  32     |     really came from God, if that learned man had told me that we
 77  Unic,  33     |         who, as I say, was a very learned man, so that I knew I could
 78  Unic,  34     |     Rector, and, after what I had learned in prayer, went without
 79  Unic,  34     |     weaknesses as I was myself. I learned, too, how little regard
 80  Unic,  34     |          it brings with it. And I learned that people of rank have
 81  Unic,  34     |       permit such a thing. I soon learned that I might safely take
 82  Unic,  34     |        not mean that, if a man is learned but not spiritual, he may
 83  Unic,  34     |          even though he be a very learned man. If he has this humility,
 84  Unic,  34     |          I am now speaking I have learned a great deal.~
 85  Unic,  34(287)|      though St. Teresa could have learned things from the Dominican
 86  Unic,  34     |         discuss them. She, I have learned, repeated them to other
 87  Unic,  35     |      neither my confessor nor the learned men whom I consulted about
 88  Unic,  35     |           do; for, now that I had learned the nature of the Rule and
 89  Unic,  35     |           disputing about it with learned men. I wrote to that effect
 90  Unic,  36     |     without asking the opinion of learned men, lest in any way whatever
 91  Unic,  36     |          of all the Orders -- two learned men from each -- to obtain
 92  Unic,  36     |          be put into the hands of learned men. This caused me a good
 93  Unic,  36     | sheltering us all.326 From this I learned what a high degree of glory
 94  Unic,  37     |           to know me better, they learned how much I owed to the Lord --
 95  Unic,  37     |          If these things could be learned once and for all, it might
 96  Unic,  38     |           smallest part of what I learned, but, when I try to discover
 97  Unic,  38     |           of those things which I learned from the Lord with a joy
 98  Unic,  38     |          not gone to purgatory. I learned that, as he had been a friar

103  Unic,  40     |         that I have been saying I learned, sometimes by means of locutions,
104  Unic,  40     |         words. About this Truth I learned the profoundest truths and
105  Unic,  40     |          been taught them by many learned men. I do not think learned
106  Unic,  40     |       learned men. I do not think learned men could ever have impressed
