content book 6
Our Lord tells Saint Bride by example that
nothing pleases God so much as that he be loved above all things.
This is a revelation sent to the holy spouse of Christ, Saint Birgitta,
in which our Lady Saint Mary reproached
the pride of women in their stance, bearing, speech, dress,
and other behavior, with the example of three wretched women:
of which one was in Hell, another in Purgatory, and the third, alive.
Our Lord Jesus Christ teaches Saint Bride
how active life and contemplative ought to be kept
through the example of Mary and Martha;
and first, of contemplative life.
How our Lady and Saint Peter kept a woman
from falling into sin, by whose counsel she changed her life,
and of special grace she fell ill,
and so was purged and went to Heaven.
