1 Int | with great earnestness, may think that he hears whether his
2 Int, 0(7) | there is every reason to think that it is the date of his
3 Int | biographers of the Saint to think that she wrote her Life
4 Int | then the other. If, as I think, Father Garcia was meant,
5 Int | Though you, my father, may think that I have a quick understanding,
6 Int, 0(27) | ch. xl. § 32). If, as I think, the book was first handed
7 Int | Enriquez, and is now, I think, in the hands of her daughter-in-law,
8 Pref | it will not allow me, I think, to let it go back without
9 Pref | away from it, they cannot think that God will do for others
10 Pref | It seems from the book, I think, that you have resisted,
11 Pref | longer than was right. I think, too, that these locutions
12 Pref | this in great need, and I think that is enough to make you
13 Pref | speak highly. This is what I think, at present, concerning
14 Life, I | Saints, began to make me think seriously when I was, I
15 Life, I | I began to offend God, I think he had some reason,—for
16 Life, I | filled with sorrow whenever I think of the good desires with
17 Life, I | as if we were nuns; and I think I wished to be a nun, though
18 Life, I | distresses me now, when I think of, and reflect on, that
19 Life, II | great harm to me. I often think how wrong it is of parents
20 Life, II | father.~8. I had not spent, I think, three months in these vanities,
21 Life, II | but within eight days, I think sooner, I was much more
22 Life, II | was some excuse for me, I think, in this: that the conversation
23 Life, III | listened to her with delight. I think there never was a time when
24 Life, III | influenced by servile fear, I think, than by love, to enter
25 Life, IV | health, though I do not think I offended God in it much.
26 Life, IV | that even if I would think of, or picture to myself,
27 Life, V | pleasure to send, I do not think I was afraid of any, for
28 Life, V | that love of God which I think I had after ./. I began
29 Life, V | imprudent and so blind as to think it a virtue to be grateful
30 Life, V | was a mortal sin. And I think that observing this resolution
31 Life, V | many tears; but I do not think those tears had their source
32 Life, V | only a venial sin. But I think that undoubtedly my salvation
33 Life, V | certainly true that when I think of it, and consider how
34 Life, VI | I could move, however, I think, one finger of my right
35 Life, VI | soon as I could; and, as I think, did all that was possible
36 Life, VI | Sometimes, too, I used to think that if I recovered my health,
37 Life, VI | know not how any man can think of the Queen of the angels,
38 Life, VI | aware of it; and I also think that nothing can be proposed
39 Life, VII | or by night—I do not think I could have brought myself
40 Life, VII | much so.~5. Therefore, I think that it did me much harm
41 Life, VII | unenclosed—yea, more, I think it is, for those who will
42 Life, VII | conversations, I did not think, seeing they were customary,
43 Life, VII | in that he helped me to think so: he made me understand
44 Life, VII | made on me was such, that I think it must have had a meaning;
45 Life, VII | in five or six years, I think it was, he made so great
46 Life, VII | see him so deceived as to think that I used to pray to God
47 Life, VII | though very ill, he did not think so; but now, though he was
48 Life, VII | shoulders, he should now think that His Majesty wished
49 Life, VII | comforted him, that I do not think I heard him complain afterwards.~
50 Life, VIII | inasmuch as I was—at least, I think so—serving God, and aware
51 Life, IX | very frequently used to think of her conversion—especially
52 Life, IX | peace, I used always to think a little of this mystery
53 Life, IX | recollected. I was able to think of Christ only as man. But
54 Life, IX | thus with me when I used to think of our Lord. This is why
55 Life, IX | of God consists. I do not think I had yet perfectly disposed
56 Life, X | the understanding, so I think, makes no reflections—
57 Life, X | gift of God. However, I think we can contribute much towards
58 Life, X | I mean to speak.163 Some think it humility not to believe
59 Life, X | all courage; for we shall think ourselves incapable of great
60 Life, X | rich? It is not possible, I think, our nature being what it
61 Life, X | longer deceive people who think there ./. must be some
62 Life, X | wicked as I am. And because I think your reverence and the others
63 Life, XI | blessings with it.~ ./. 2. We think so much of ourselves, and
64 Life, XI | the saints have done. We think we are giving all to God;
65 Life, XI | you see my stupidity. I think, now, I have either read
66 Life, XI | alone, and in retirement think over their past life. Though
67 Life, XI | carry the Cross, and let him think how He carried it all His
68 Life, XI | very great, and require, I think, greater courage than many
69 Life, XII | must neither imagine nor think that we can of ourselves
70 Life, XII | the mind occupied, and to think that you can keep them at
71 Life, XIII | for there are people who think it is all over with devotion
72 Life, XIII | one time I used often to think of those words of St. Paul: "
73 Life, XIII | humility. He makes them think it is pride to have large
74 Life, XIII | forthwith, or he makes us think, that the actions of the ./.
75 Life, XIII | kind.~6. But we ought to think that we can force ourselves,
76 Life, XIII | however, are so mean that we think the earth would fail us
77 Life, XIII | to spirituality. Then we think that to have all we require
78 Life, XIII | will give to others. And we think ourselves spiritual!~7.
79 Life, XIII | might have brought me, so I think, to a state in which these
80 Life, XIII | work ought to be done. They think it lost time to do otherwise;
81 Life, XIII | time to do otherwise; but I think that loss their greatest
82 Life, XIII | religious himself, he will think this right enough. If his
83 Life, XIII | are in religion—when I think of the trouble they have
84 Life, XIII | everywhere the Cross. I think it would be a great evil
85 Life, XIII | and live at our ease—may think, because we give ./. ourselves
86 Life, XIV | spent in prayer. And thus I think it a very great advantage
87 Life, XIV | itself before me. Nor do I think that it can be disagreeable
88 Life, XV | back; it will go down, I think so, even to the abyss, as
89 Life, XV | search for reasons, it will think at once that it is doing
90 Life, XVI(227)| the Saint, must begin, I think, with the prayer of infused
91 Life, XVI | ourselves—and, indeed, I do not think we can do it at all at this
92 Life, XVI | fashions thereof? I do not think that I have exaggerated
93 Life, XVI | from public sins? Well, I think it is because the preachers
94 Life, XVII | death that would be! Now, I think it is for the soul's good—
95 Life, XVII | utmost clearness possible, I think, here on earth.~15. Do you,
96 Life, XVIII | understanding; and when I come to think of it, I can get no further.
97 Life, XVIII | be a long time. I do not think that I have ever been so
98 Life, XVIII | senses are in suspense; but I think that at any time it cannot
99 Life, XIX | the practice of prayer. I think so too, if he gives up prayer,
100 Life, XIX | to myself, when I used to think such thoughts as these.
101 Life, XIX | began at once, and, as I think, with good reason; so I
102 Life, XIX | judicium tuum,"257 I began to think what a deep truth it was.
103 Life, XIX | great as mine? Where could I think I should find help but in
104 Life, XIX | cross this moment. I do not think I ever escaped so great
105 Life, XIX | twenty-one years ago. I do not think I ever gave up my purpose
106 Life, XIX | slumber. He made me—I think I said so before261—go
107 Life, XX | never be able to describe; I think I can say that it is in
108 Life, XX | indescribable; I do not think any one can believe or comprehend
109 Life, XX | I know it is not; but I think it is the state of the enraptured
110 Life, XX | whatever; and, indeed, as I think, during much of that time
111 Life, XX | out of joint.281 Well, I think sometimes, if it continues
112 Life, XX | that I should die: I do not think of purgatory, nor of the
113 Life, XX | have said before,282 and I think I may say that this pain
114 Life, XX | exceedingly supernatural, and I think I would not barter it for
115 Life, XX | in the matter, they will think, perhaps, that they must
116 Life, XX | trance— and they will think so the more if they have
117 Life, XX | wanting in humility, and think it means to teach those
118 Life, XXI | double-dealing. When you think you have gained one man'
119 Life, XXI | away. Certainly, when I think of this, my devotion is
120 Life, XXI | there are people who ./. think themselves detached, and
121 Life, XXI | those who have to do with it think it has arrived at the summit
122 Life, XXI | might not go back. I do not think that I am doing anything
123 Life, XXII | I should like to say—I think it important: and if you,
124 Life, XXII | Him more than all.309 They think that, as this work of contemplation
125 Life, XXII | Christ crucified! I never think of this opinion, which I
126 Life, XXII | not from Thee? I will not think that I was blamable, for
127 Life, XXII | not permit us always to think of His Passion, because
128 Life, XXII | having once known Thee, ever think I should gain more in this
129 Life, XXII | not easy to bear, when I think of Thee standing before
130 Life, XXII | full soever of God it may think itself to be.~13. It is
131 Life, XXII | self-invited guests, as I think I said on another occasion.315
132 Life, XXII | with a sense of devotion, think everything lost,—as if
133 Life, XXII | servants.324 What do we think we can do? Our Lord grant
134 Life, XXII | been given up to God? I think this less endurable now
135 Life, XXII | do not trust them if they think that they advance more,
136 Life, XXII | conclusion: whenever we think of Christ, we should remind
137 Life, XXII | by the highest way; these think that others might advance
138 Life, XXII | to the prayer of quiet, think forthwith that, as they
139 Life, XXIII | understanding, making me think it to be good, in order
140 Life, XXIII | of prayer; but I did not think myself fit to speak to them,
141 Life, XXIII | thee! This holy man—for I think I may justly call him so—
142 Life, XXIII | myself, in that I could not think of anything. This is what
143 Life, XXIII | dwelt on—that I could think of nothing when I was in
144 Life, XXIII | that was true, for I do not think I knew it even by name,—
145 Life, XXIV | for, previously, I used to think that, in order to obtain
146 Life, XXIV | He did Himself. Nor did I think myself that I could succeed;
147 Life, XXV | 1. It will be as well, I think, to explain these locutions
148 Life, XXV | run little or no risk, I think; but the experience must
149 Life, XXV | love and earnestness may think that he hears in some way
150 Life, XXV | moment, as I have shown,—I think it was when I was speaking
151 Life, XXV | are suspended; and, as I think, neither vision, nor understanding,
152 Life, XXV | what I had heard, and to think that it was all imagination,
153 Life, XXV | understanding whenever we like, and think that we hear them whenever
154 Life, XXV | the Spirit of God will, I think, understand it.~18. Nevertheless,
155 Life, XXV | five or six in number, I think,—and all very great servants
156 Life, XXV | way. This lasted, I think, about two years; and this
157 Life, XXVI | to suffer; that I was to think of His sufferings, and then
158 Life, XXVI | enough; for I had so much to think of, and such reasons for
159 Life, XXVII | have imagined things we think we see; but here, though
160 Life, XXVII | passes in heaven; and I think that, as the blessed there
161 Life, XXVII | It is impossible. Can we think that we can, by preserving
162 Life, XXVII | however, I will speak, and I think of it now and then,—may
163 Life, XXVII | and discreet persons? We think forthwith that there is
164 Life, XXVII | and patched garments, we think it a novelty, and a scandal
165 Life, XXVII | Saints. More mischief, I think, is done in this way, than
166 Life, XXVII | again.402 He told me, I think, that for forty years he
167 Life, XXVIII | in this way.~3. You will think, my father, that it required
168 Life, XXVIII | though you, my father, may think that I have a quick understanding,
169 Life, XXVIII | devil has no power here. I think he tried three or four times
170 Life, XXVIII | its own delusion, I do not think that Satan will be able
171 Life, XXVIII | Satan ministers must be, I think, very different—it shows
172 Life, XXIX | him experience it who may think that I am lying.440~18.
173 Life, XXX | spirit of bad temper, that I think I could eat people up; nor
174 Life, XXX | torment altogether. I used to think, too, that I deceived them;
175 Life, XXX | happen if those people who think I am good knew of my extravagance.
176 Life, XXX | the case with me, but I think that my scanty bodily health
177 Life, XXX | little humility, when I could think that I had attained to this
178 Life, XXX | in some measure. I really think that I love Him; but my
179 Life, XXXI | suffer, much in this way. I think at once of the life of Christ
180 Life, XXXI | it comforts me whenever I think of it.~16. This temptation
181 Life, XXXI | of us detached, though we think we are; it is necessary
182 Life, XXXII | by fear even now when I think of it. And so, amid all
183 Life, XXXII | no time in which I do not think that all we have to suffer
184 Life, XXXII | accustomed to eat. I tried to think what I could do for God,
185 Life, XXXII | we had to do so made us think it was; but I, on the other
186 Life, XXXII | against us, and who did not think our work the greatest folly.~
187 Life, XXXII | the Provincial began to think it hard for him to set himself
188 Life, XXXIII | confessor bade me forthwith to think no more of it, notwithstanding
189 Life, XXXIII | reassured me much, and, I think, profited himself; for though
190 Life, XXXIII | had ever had before, as I think, and with which I wished
191 Life, XXXIV | my place. Three times, I think I did this, and at last
192 Life, XXXIV | makes it forget itself, and think itself to be one with Him;
193 Life, XXXIV | dreadful for me than to think that I had sinned against
194 Life, XXXIV | under a delusion when we think that in the course of years
195 Life, XXXIV | not distress himself, nor think that he can understand that
196 Life, XXXIV | astonished at this, nor think it impossible: all things
197 Life, XXXIV | more persecutions. I do not think it expedient now to speak
198 Life, XXXIV | know all, should hereafter think otherwise, more might be
199 Life, XXXIV | purgatory.~25. I do not think it was quite eight days
200 Life, XXXV | necessary for us, and I did not think of the many anxieties which
201 Life, XXXV | have been my great joy to think that I was observing the
202 Life, XXXVI | here but a short time,—I think not quite eight days,—
203 Life, XXXVI | because now for some time—I think for more than two years—
204 Life, XXXVI | never thought so, and do not think so even now; I always looked
205 Life, XXXVI | Provincial. I did certainly think that the Provincial would
206 Life, XXXVI | me ask myself how I could think of shutting myself up in
207 Life, XXXVI | were so many, that I could think of nothing else; and with
208 Life, XXXVI | Only a moment ago, I do not think I would have exchanged my
209 Life, XXXVI | for our Lord. I did not think I had offended against His
210 Life, XXXVI | the rule in that house, think of keeping it in another
211 Life, XXXVI | great a reward. But, as I think I have spoken of this before,553
212 Life, XXXVI | rule,558—yet the sisters think it light on many points,
213 Life, XXXVI | habit we wear. Amen.~30. I think you must be wearied, my
214 Life, XXXVI | love of God, should you think fit to destroy the rest
215 Life, XXXVII | me always to remember and think of him, though I had no
216 Life, XXXVII | was pleased to see him, to think of him and of his good qualities.
217 Life, XXXVII | dislike, must not even dare to think about them, lest they should
218 Life, XXXVII | hidest Thyself from me—I think and believe so—such is
219 Life, XXXVIII | illusion; but as I did not think so, I knew not what to do,
220 Life, XXXVIII | nothing but cry; for I did not think it possible for me to see
221 Life, XXXVIII | of what I saw; but when I think of doing it, I find it impossible;
222 Life, XXXVIII | makes it easy for us to think of the things of heaven,
223 Life, XXXVIII | no power left, and, as I think, different from what I had
224 Life, XXXVIII | such a guest; and yet, as I think, a grace so wonderful might
225 Life, XXXVIII | to remember how I used to think it an honourable thing to
226 Life, XXXVIII | am from deserving it. I think our Lord must do it for
227 Life, XXXVIII | occasions, ./. and it is, I think, the highest vision of all
228 Life, XXXVIII | nevertheless, I did not think he would be damned. When
229 Life, XXXVIII | common to all, I began to think of the goodness of God,
230 Life, XXXVIII | makes me afraid whenever I think of it.~34. Now that I have
231 Life, XXXVIII | have this revealed to me; I think it must be because I was
232 Life, XXXIX | was not to doubt. I do not think that eight days passed before
233 Life, XXXIX | that it gives me no pain to think so. I bless His Majesty,
234 Life, XXXIX | from their true meaning? We think we may measure our progress
235 Life, XXXIX | exercise of prayer; we even think we can prescribe limits
236 Life, XXXIX | great services, I should not think of these trifles. Blessed
237 Life, XXXIX | evil. I therefore ceased to think of the matter, and wished
238 Life, XXXIX | and, moreover, I did not think I was so detached from all
239 Life, XXXIX | I have said it before, I think,597~and I still say now
240 Life, XXXIX | for Communion; I do not think it can be expressed. One
241 Life, XXXIX | marvels of God; and when I think of the most Holy Trinity,
242 Life, XL | great a blessing, I began to think how much I had deserved
243 Life, XL | Lord to show it to me. What think you must be the power of
244 Life, XL | it to be so with some. I think it best for these to force
245 Life, XL | piteous thing too, whenever I think of it, to see such foul
246 Life, XL | The meaning of that, as I think, is that they are to be
247 Life, XL | to me a sinner. I do not think it is necessary to speak
248 Life, XL | say or know about me. I think much more of one soul's
249 Life, XL | greatly comforted if he shall think that I am on a safe road,
250 Rel, I | cometh such great courage. I think I should live to raise my
251 Rel, I | were to do so, I do not think I could have the face to
252 Rel, I | it; if I did so, I should think myself under a grievous
253 Rel, I | perfume, music, etc., I think I would rather not have
254 Rel, I | with such persons, and I think they help me on. People
255 Rel, I | much as I can. I do not think it is a year ago since our
256 Rel, I | and almost always when I think of them they seem to me
257 Rel, I | troubled, so that I cannot think at all about God, neither
258 Rel, I | whole day; and I do not think it is fancy, for I have
259 Rel, I | God.637~29. However, I can think that Satan now and then
260 Rel, I | notorious, and compels me to think over all I have said—I
261 Rel, II | Cerda, in 1562.638~Jesus.~I think it is more than a year since
262 Rel, II | great faith, that I do not think God will ever fail those
263 Rel, II | betake myself unto God.~3. I think I am much more compassionate
264 Rel, II | very much the better. I think that what they say makes
265 Rel, II | it would upon an idiot. I think at times, and nearly always,
266 Rel, II | which God has given me; I think I have received, so far
267 Rel, II | God never failing me, I think I should be able to withstand
268 Rel, II | soul, or theirs to whom I think I do good. Of the former
269 Rel, II | seems to me much greater. I think I could go forth alone by
270 Rel, II | more in His love.~15. I think I could not be led away
271 Rel, II | worthless makes me sometimes think with fear that I must be
272 Rel, II | I scarcely ever begin to think of them but my understanding
273 Rel, II | verily amazed at times. I think I discern the great care
274 Rel, III | exceedingly consoled, and began to think how great the pain must
275 Rel, III | thou all her penance? I think more of thy obedience."~
276 Rel, III | and sit there herself. I think I did not see the image
277 Rel, III | for certainly I do not think that nature can bear them."
278 Rel, IV | strong; for now I do not think I am suffering at all.~
279 Rel, V | conscience.667 But let no one think that of himself he can abide
280 Rel, V | our wretched misery. And I think, if it be union to have
281 Rel, V | writing, my father, what you think of this, and how I am in
282 Rel, V | there is nobody who dares to think of it; for the understanding
283 Rel, V | as He has been, I do not think I should have had the courage
284 Rel, V | that men can swim, will think, when he sees people throw
285 Rel, VI | Lord's will; for I do not think that Satan could fill the
286 Rel, VI | this: and so, whenever I think of it, I praise our Lord,
287 Rel, VI | belonging to it. I began to think of one great grace which
288 Rel, VI | pressed me, that I do not think I ever did anything in my
289 Rel, VII | did not deserve even to think about God, except that His
290 Rel, VII | is three,—she began to think that she occasionally heard
291 Rel, VII | Salamanca, Inquisitor, I think, of Toledo, previously of
292 Rel, VII | other times she could not think so. These things were not
293 Rel, VII | and clean, nor does she think it can be otherwise if the
294 Rel, VII | herself, and her confessors think so too.~25. All that is
295 Rel, VIII | it is not in my mind to think this to be correct, for
296 Rel, VIII | and, indeed, often.~2. I think it will please you, my father,
297 Rel, VIII | the memory, the soul, I think, has none then, nor any
298 Rel, VIII | may praise Him. This, I think, must be the source of those
299 Rel, VIII | the fear I am in.~21. I think the First spoke to me at
300 Rel, VIII | case, I should immediately think I was imagining things,
301 Rel, IX | part was addressed to me, I think, because I was then so worn
302 Rel, IX | have never been able to think of One of the Three Divine
303 Rel, IX | life!" He said unto me: "Think, my child, when life is
304 Rel, IX | close to me, that it made me think whether it was an illusion
305 Rel, IX | again this little paper, I think this must be the feast referred
306 Rel, XI | and I understand now, so I think, that the visions I had
307 Rel, XI | ruin, and when I used to think I had offended God. I cannot
308 Rel, XI | only for a short time, I think that of more importance
