HERE FOLLOWETH DIVERS DOCTRINES DEVOUT AND FRUITFUL, TAKEN OUT OF
THE LIFE OF THAT GLORIOUS VIRGIN AND SPOUSE OF OUR LORD, SAINT
KATHERIN OF SEENES. AND FIRST THOSE WHICH OUR LORD TAUGHT AND SHEWED
TO HERSELF, AND SITH THOSE WHICH SHE TAUGHT AND SHEWED UNTO OTHERS





THE first doctrine of our Lord is this:

"Knowest thou not, daughter, who thou art and who I am? If thou know
well these two words, thou art and shalt be blessed. Thou art she
that art nought; and I am He that am ought.[118] If thou have the
very knowledge of these two things in thy soul, thy ghostly enemy
shall never deceive thee, but thou shalt eschew graciously all his
malice;[119] and thou shalt never consent to any thing that is
against My commandments and precepts, but all grace, all truth, and
all charity thou shalt win without any hardness."

The second doctrine of our Lord is this:

"Think on Me, and I shall think on thee."

In declaring of which doctrine she was wont to say that:

"A soul which is verily united to God perceiveth not, seeth not, nor
loveth not herself, nor none other soul, nor hath no mind of no
creature but only on God."
