The Life of St. Teresa of Jesus by Saint of Avila Teresa
page 33 of 699 (04%)

27. Chap. xiii. section 22. In chap. xvi. section 12, the Saint
says: "I wish we five who now love one another in our Lord, had
made some such arrangement, etc." Fuente is of opinion that
these five were, besides the Saint, Father Julian de Avila, Don
Francisco de Salcedo, St. John of the Cross, and Don Lorenzo de
Cepeda, St. Teresa's brother: but this is impossible at the date
of this part of the "Life." It is more probable that she meant
Francisco de Salcedo, Gaspar Daza, Julian de Avila, and Father
Ibanez, the latter being still alive in the beginning of 1564,
when this chapter was written. It is more difficult to say who
the three confessors were whom St. Teresa desired to see the
"Life" (ch. xl. section 32). If, as I think, the book was first
handed to Father Garcia de Toledo, the others may have been
Francisco de Salcedo, Baltasar Alvarez, and Gaspar de Salazar.

28. Chap. x. sections 11 and 12.

29. This is the second reason why the letter could not have been
addressed to Father Ibanez in 1562.

30. Edited by Don Francisco Herrero Bayona, 1883 p. 4.
