Note 122 — Chapter V · MYSTICISM.[1] (continued 2)
Reading edition
Bossuet, who read her autobiography in MS. tells us of this tympanitic condition and the splitting of her garments (De Quietismo, ap. Laemmer, op. cit., p. 423). In the printed life, this special feature is omitted, but the passage has every appearance of curtailment (II, 33, cf. 234; III, 9).
