Note 202 — Chapter IX · THE RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT.

For further details respecting ecstasy I refer the reader to my Maladies de la volonté, ch. v., and to Godfernaux, Le Sentiment et la Pensée, p. 49. Purely medical works contain little that is instructive with regard to the psychology of this state; the works of the mystics themselves may be studied with far more profit.
