' A few days after, he returned, and I believe that he obtained for me by his prayers the grace of overcoming my extreme repugnance to confess, since I did it then without great diffi- culty. I became so contented and happy that I felt a different creature : and, although God made me feel sorrow for my sins, I may say that I have never had so true or even so keen a satisfaction in all my life, and that never had I had so much pleasure in amusing myself and laughing as I had then in weeping. I o...ught not to relate this, since I am writing only that which concerns the guidance and the providence of God for this House ; but I tell it because all our Sisters, with exception of two, were in the same disposition of penitence and of joy.
' There was so close union of all our hearts, that, in a silence carefully kept, it seemed as though our Sisters spoke to each other, to confirm each other in the desire of religious perfection.
