The better thou disposest thyself for suffering, the more wisely dost thou act, and the more dost thou merit; and thou wilt bear it more easily, thy mind being well prepared for it, and accustomed to it.
-Bk. III, ch. xix.

How sweetly doth mine own soul echo,
Jesu, those brave words of Thine
Full of longing for Thy Passion,
All on fire with love divine!
-Poems.
