113 Life, XX | knows not what it seeks. I say that it knows not, because
114 Life, XX | at all,—so the sisters say, who sometimes approach
115 Life, XX | before,282 and I think I may say that this pain is as great
116 Life, XX | that I am correct in what I say, nor do I know how to express
117 Life, XX | speak further on: I do not say for all of them together,
118 Life, XX | characteristics. I have to say that, when the rapture was
119 Life, XX | far away.~24. I do not say that the soul sees and hears
120 Life, XX | humility that will never say any good of self, nor suffer
121 Life, XXI | this matter to an end, I say that it is not necessary
122 Life, XXI | which is wasting me, to say this to those who are in

132 Life, XXII | the purpose, yet what I say is the result of experience;
133 Life, XXII | intermeddle here. What I would say is, that the most Sacred
134 Life, XXII | before our eyes,—this, I say, is what seems to me not
135 Life, XXII | making the soul, as they say, to walk in the air; for
136 Life, XXII | other inconvenience which I say must be met with. The first—
137 Life, XXIII | it has no wings, as they say; and yet no one will believe
138 Life, XXIII | I might suffer. I do not say that they revealed anything
139 Life, XXIII | made up their minds what to say,—I was waiting for it
140 Life, XXIII | as made it impossible to say whether it was, or was not,
141 Life, XXIII | visibly, as I am now going to say.~
142 Life, XXIV | therefore, had reason to say so. Yet, in those things

150 Life, XXVI | for him that it is I who say it, in order to be free
151 Life, XXVII | explain it better.~5. For if I say that I see Him neither with
152 Life, XXVII | so; but when it is so, I say that we do nothing whatever
153 Life, XXVII | true, and that all we can say is exceedingly little, when
154 Life, XXVII | iota of what may be said; I say only that which is necessary
155 Life, XXVII | things I should like to say of him, if I were not afraid,
156 Life, XXVII | my father, that you will say, Why does she meddle here?
157 Life, XXVIII | thing, however, I have to say: if in heaven itself there
158 Life, XXVIII | things better than I do, say that the intellectual vision
159 Life, XXVIII | latter kind of visions, they say, is the lowest; and it is
160 Life, XXVIII | that my confessor might not say to me that I indulged in

162 Life, XXVIII | literally true.~12. I do not say this by way of comparison,

167 Life, XXIX | my necessities,—I may say so,—or those of others;
168 Life, XXIX | could not hear me—began to say that I was certainly under
169 Life, XXIX | prayer.430 He told me to say to them that this was tyranny.

181 Life, XXXI | in many things. Some will say, I have nothing that I can
182 Life, XXXI | not know it very well, to say so. At first, I felt it
183 Life, XXXI | ashamed I have nothing else to say of myself; and that it is
184 Life, XXXII | and, as the physicians say, the greatest that can be
185 Life, XXXII | whom my superiors could not say no, were glad to have me
186 Life, XXXII | with whom I was speaking to say to me and the others that
187 Life, XXXII | told me also what I was to say to my friend; and what surprised

193 Life, XXXIII | splendours of earth, so to say, are a daubing of soot.
194 Life, XXXIV(501) | that Don Vicente does not say that the MS. on this point

197 Life, XXXVI | were not to be more,—I say this to those who opposed
198 Life, XXXVI | this before,553 I will now say no more than that he showed
199 Life, XXXVI | from the lawsuit, and would say that they now felt it to

203 Life, XXXVIII | and so it is better to say nothing more.~4. I was in
204 Life, XXXVIII | once;576 but I will not say anything of them now, lest
205 Life, XXXVIII | and my joy, I am going to say that in some way, in these
206 Life, XXXVIII | really mine, I might well say that I had done something
207 Life, XXXVIII(580)| biographers of the Saint say that she often found, on

214 Life, XXXIX | O my God, if I were to say in what way, and in how
215 Life, XXXIX | I think,597~and I still say now and then to my confessor,
216 Life, XL | extremely disordered. This, I say, happens occasionally, particularly
217 Life, XL | friar Peter of Alcantara say so, and, indeed, I know
218 Life, XL | know it myself. He used to say that women made greater

221 Life, XL | heartily pray to God for. I say to Him sometimes, with my
222 Life, XL | though others have much to say about me, because I see
223 Life, XL | very little what people say or know about me. I think
224 Life, XL | than of all that people may say of me; and since I am settled

230 Rel, II | better in all I have to say: may He be praised for it
231 Rel, II | I think that what they say makes scarcely any more
232 Rel, III | miraculous? By this He meant to say that He alone had done it,
233 Rel, III | Persons. And I heard Him say also: "Labour thou not to
