Note 110 — Chapter V · MYSTICISM.[1] (continued 2)

The account of the atto di fede is derived from the MS. Casanatense, X, VII, 45, and a relation printed by Laemmer, Meletematum Romanorum Mantissa, pp. 407 sqq., who also prints (pp. 412-22) the sentence of Pedro Peña.

The contemporary printed sources of the whole affair are Trois Lettres touchant l’Etat present d’Italie, Cologne, 1688; Recueil de diverses pièces concernant le Quietisme et les Quietistes, Amsterdam, 1688, and Bernino, Historia di tutte l’Heresie, IV, 711 sqq. The concise account by Reusch (Der Index, II, 611 sqq.) is written with his accustomed thoroughness and careful use of all accessible sources. John Bigelow’s “Molinos the Quietist” (New York, 1882) is a popular narrative which rejects the charges of immorality. See also Heppe, Geschichte der quietistischen Mystik, pp. 110 sqq., 260 sqq. (Berlin, 1875).
