We have no
need
of
reflection
to
enable
us to
understand
this, for the
soul
's
experience
of
enduring
it, and of
having
found itself
completely
powerless
, has made it
realize
that it is
utterly
helpless
and that we are but
miserable
creatures
. For, though it cannot be
devoid
of
grace
, since
despite
all this
torment
it does not
offend
God
, and would not do so for anything upon
earth
, yet this
grace
is
buried
so
deeply
that the
soul
seems not to
feel
the
smallest
spark
of any
love
for
God
, nor has it ever done so. If it has done anything
good
, or His
Majesty
has
granted
it any
favour
, the whole
thing
seems to it like a
dream
or a
fancy
: all it
knows
for
certain
is that it has
sinned
.
