Notes from Wikiquote

in that moment the mind is compelled to silence | a spiritual fervor arises in it and a quiet, amazed love. | When, indeed, it is amazed in God | the mind is always recollected and easily withdrawn within itself | without compulsion or care about this on his part. | 4.24, p. 72
