This hath been witnessed since the earliest centuries and is also seen in this time. Therefore an effort should be made that through the Invisible Assistance we may not be prevented by similar dark veils and the cloud of Divine tests from beholding that shining Beauty; that we may know Him in Himself, and if we seek any proof, we may be satisfied with one evidence and argument, in order that we may attain to the fountain of the Infinite Bounty before which all bounties are accounted as nothing; and not to oppose Him every day by an imagination nor by clinging to a fancy.
