I Recommend To You Holy Simplicity.

Cook The Truth In Charity Until It Tastes Sweet.

Be Neat, Philothea; Let Nothing Be Negligent About You. It Is A Kind Of Contempt Of Those With Whom We Converse, To Frequent Their Company In Uncomely Apparel; But, At The Same Time, Avoid All Affectation, Vanity, Curiosity, Or Levity In Your Dress. Keep Yourself Always, As Much As Possible, On The Side Of Plainness And Modesty, Which, Without Doubt, Is The Greatest Ornament Of Beauty, And The Best Excuse For The Want Of It.

How Are You To Meet The Swarm Of Foolish Attachments, Triflings, And Undesirable Inclinations Which Beset You? By Turning Sharply Away, And Thoroughly Renouncing Such Vanities, Flying To The Saviour's Cross, And Clasping His Crown Of Thorns To Your Heart, So That These Little Foxes May Not Spoil Your Vines. Beware Of Entering Into Any Manner Of Treaty With The Enemy; Do Not Delude Yourself By Listening To Him While Intending To Reject Him.

If We Say A Little It Is Easy To Add, But Having Said Too Much It Is Hard To Withdraw And Never Can It Be Done So Quickly As To Hinder The Harm Of Our Success.

Charity And Devotion Differ No More, The One From The Other, Than The Flame From The Fire.
