Not
that
there
are
no
persons
advanced
in
sancti-fication
who
have
faults
in
appearance
even
greater
than
those
of
others,
but
they
are
not
the
same
either
as
to
their
nature
or
their
quality.
The
second
reason
why
I
say
that
such
books
can
do
no
harm
is,
that
they
demand
so
much
natural
death,
so
much
breaking
oflf,
so
many
things
to
be
conquered
and
destroyed,
that
no
one
would
ever
have
strength
for
the
undertaking
without
sincerity
of
purpose;
or
even
if
any
one
undertook
it,
it
would
only
produce
the
effect
of
meditation^
which
is
to
endeavour
to
destroy
itself.
As
for
those
who
wish
to
lead
others
in
their
groove,
and
not
in
God*s,
and
to
place
limits
to
their
further
advancement
—
as
for
those,
I
say,
who
know
but
one
way,
and
would
have
all
the
world
to
walk
in
it,
the
evils
which
they
bring
upon
others
are
irre-mediable,
for
they
keep
them
all
their
lives
stopping
at
certain
things
which
hinder
God
from
blessing
them
infinitely.
It
seems
to
me
that
we
must
act
in
the
divine
life
as
in
a
school.
The
scholars
are
not
kept
always
in
the

class,
