THE SPIRITUAL EXERCISES OF ST. IGNATIUS OF LOYOLA TRANSLATED FROM THE AUTOGRAPH
BY FATHER ELDER MULLAN, S.J.
We have read everything compiled in the volume: it has greatly pleased us and
seemed remarkably conducive to the salvation of souls.
The Cardinal of Burgos
We grant leave to print the work; it is worthy of all praise and very profitable
to the Christian profession.
PHILIP, Vicar.
As the Christian religion cannot long subsist without some spiritual exercises
and meditations -- for the Psalmist says: In my meditation a fire flames out
-- I think none more appropriate than these, which undoubtedly have had their
source in the study of the Scriptures and in long experience.
Fr. Aegidius Foscararius, Master of the Sacred Palace
