Note 467 — APPENDIX TO PART II CHRONOLOGICAL ACCOUNT AND CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE MATERIALS FOR THE RE-CONSTITUTION OF SAINT CATHERINE’S LIFE AND TEACHING. (continued 3)
Reading edition
The Bull is given in full by Fr. Sticker: Acta Sanctorum, Sept., Vol. V, ed. 1866, pp. 181 F-188 A. See there, p. 183 B, E. In the former passage the double description is rightly attributed to the same event; and the contradiction between them is ably eliminated by the Bull’s words: “She seemed to herself to behold the image of the suffering Saviour” (instead of Vita, p. 5b, “affixed to the Cross”); and, in the latter passage, the description of her poverty is kept free from the extravagances of the Dialogo, pp. 220c, 221c.
