 2     Int        |         the power to describe and explain it to others. Though it
 3     Int        |          then she was not able to explain to others what she experienced
 4     Int, Arg   |        Chapter X.—She begins to explain the graces God gave her
 5     Int, Arg   |      Chapter XIV.—She begins to explain the second degree of prayer
 6     Int, Arg   |          of prayer, and begins to explain41 in what high dignity God
 7     Int, Arg   |       same subject, and begins to explain the effects on the soul
 8     Int, Arg   |  admirable manner. She goes on to explain a vision, though not an
 9    Pref        |      language in some places, and explain it in others; and there
10    Life, I     |           of them, as I shall now explain, to offend Him.~
11    Life, II    |          me light, as I shall now explain.~
12    Life, VII   |            I say this in order to explain the great blindness I was
13    Life, IX    |         grew in me as I shall now explain. It is not the custom of
14    Life, X     |       everything.~10. Others will explain this. I speak from my own
15    Life, XI    |          of it I shall be able to explain, in some measure, the four
16    Life, XII   |           very necessary—was to explain how much we may attain to
17    Life, XII   | experience; and I know not how to explain it, if what I have said
18    Life, XII   |          suspends it—as I shall explain by and by, if I can;184
19    Life, XII   |           a word by which I might explain it to others. This was no
20    Life, XIII  |       advantages also.~18. I will explain myself further; for the
21    Life, XIII  |       does not allow me to say or explain in a few words that which
22    Life, XIII  |       which it is so important to explain well. I, who have gone through
23    Life, XIII  |        God deliver us!~25. I will explain myself further, for I am
24    Life, XIV   |         deal with them as I shall explain. Everything that takes place
25    Life, XIV   |       found; nor do I know how to explain it, because learning is
26    Life, XIV   |          the purpose, in order to explain the general and particular
27    Life, XIV   |         10. I should like them to explain this, because it is a principal
28    Life, XVI   |      whereby to describe it or to explain it; neither does the soul
29    Life, XVI   |    understood it, and never could explain it; and so I was resolved,
30    Life, XVII  |         the power to describe and explain it to others. Though it
31    Life, XVII  |           pleasure of our Lord to explain these states of prayer,
32    Life, XVIII |            5. What I undertake to explain is that which the soul feels
33    Life, XIX   |        strong enough—as I shall explain hereafter262—to expose
34    Life, XX    |          of It.~1. I wish I could explain, with the help of God, wherein
35    Life, XX    |           matters, so also may He explain this; for certainly, if
36    Life, XX    |          should like very much to explain this great pain, and I believe
37    Life, XX    |       that some one would clearly explain this to you, my father,
38    Life, XXII  |        endure. May God help me to explain myself! I am not contradicting
39    Life, XXII  |  understood. I wish I knew how to explain it.314~12. When God suspends
40    Life, XXIII |         my life, since I began to explain these methods of prayer,
41    Life, XXV   |           be as well, I think, to explain these locutions of God,
42    Life, XXV   |          use.~3. I should like to explain the delusions which may
43    Life, XXV   |           great. I should like to explain also how those locutions
44    Life, XXV   |          I have been able thus to explain it. I end by saying that,
45    Life, XXVII |           comparisons in order to explain myself; and certainly there
46    Life, XXVII |           are no words whereby to explain,—at least, none for us
47    Life, XXVII |           little: learned men can explain it better.~5. For if I say
48    Life, XXVII |        may desire ever so much to explain it, if our Lord will not
49    Life, XXVII |       them impossible, or I shall explain the way or the road by which
50    Life, XXVIII|           mean that I am going to explain how it is that a light so
51    Life, XXVIII|          have very much wished to explain it to me, I have never been
52    Life, XXVIII|       about, you, my father, will explain better than I can, and make
53    Life, XXVIII|            and beyond my skill to explain. Now and then it seemed
54    Life, XXIX  |        nature, as I shall perhaps explain hereafter.425 And though
55    Life, XXIX  |         impossible to describe or explain the way in which God wounds
56    Life, XXIX  |         the others, that I cannot explain it.~17. I saw in his hand
57    Life, XXX   |      would clearly understand and explain my state should have had
58    Life, XXXI  |       again. I wish I knew how to explain it, because many souls,
59    Life, XXXVI |        Provincial commanded me to explain my conduct before the nuns,
60    Life, XXXVI |           is impossible for me to explain what took place during the
61    Life, XXXIX |    praying, and I know not how to explain it. As to the first, when
62    Life, XL    |           in a way which I cannot explain. I can understand that it
63    Life, XL    |         all sculptured—I cannot explain it—in our Lord Himself
64    Life, XL    |          Him. I cannot in any way explain it, but the vision remains
65    Life, XL    |          something, seeing that I explain it by an illustration, only
66     Rel, III   |        saw it,—and I can hardly explain it,—willingly to forfeit
67     Rel, V     |         to this; and the nun must explain the straits she is in, in
68     Rel, VIII  |        can neither understand nor explain it. This, if it be real,
69     Rel, VIII  |        pain;~ ./. but as I cannot explain it except by comparing it
70     Rel, VIII  |     suffering. I cannot, however, explain it in any other way. It
71     Rel, IX    |      cannot, as I have just said, explain it at all; for some of these
72     Rel, XI    |          Oh, that I could clearly explain to your Lordship the peace
73     Ind        |          memory, xi. 9; unable to explain the state of her soul, xii.
