Whoever he may have been, he forms a link between the Flemish mystics of the fourteenth century, and the older scholastics and theologians who wrote on prayer in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Not, saith she, for them that have attained, but for them that have not, that shall so God will; but always they shall missay, till they be the same. This soul is no-one by naughting, and she recketh not in this naughting, though the serpent her devour. For this soul, saith Love, recketh not of hell, nor of paradise, nor of thing that is made, she neither willeth nor unwilleth anything that is here said., Oh, what then, for God? saith Holy-Church-the-little-with-all-his-rude-scripture. Will ye, right this day, by courtesy, dissolve[375] me, ye fine Love?. Camaioni notes that the 1536 Capuchin Constitutions are much more than a juridical text or a spiritual commentary on the Rule (1223) of Francis. This is the originality in an age when religious treatises were either ascetic or speculative, and when the mystical life was sometimes studied as a department of philosophy, or seen only through the eyes of moralists, or even degraded by the interpretation of heresy and self-indulgence. Why, saith Love, marvelleth Holy Church, though the virtues serve the high heavenly souls, and why should they not? This I shall tell you how and for why and in what? She recketh no more of the war that she was wont to have, for the will of her is nakedly laid in the place whence it was first taken, where it ought by rights to be. And when be these souls become free? saith Reason. Venerabilis Godfridus de Fontanis, Master of Theology at the Sorbonne, who flourished c. 1286-1303, and who appears to have died in 1306, when Ruysbroeck was a child of thirteen. Then shall I say, saith Love, this which Reason should say if she were alive in you and which she should ask of you, our Beloved, saith Love to this soul, which is Love and none other thing than Love. And if she think that we shall write more explicitly than other creatures have written, it is begging, this that she hears, for she would that her even-Christian found God in themselves by writings and by words. MS. thinking of the fartake of nigh .. And this point he hath assured me of without doubt by his pure bounty. An examination of the original work of Richard Methley, the Latin translator of the Mirror, shows that he had hardly imbibed the teaching of his author. Nothing will I ask him for too much that were of malice, but I ought to trust wholly in him, and that sweet lover to love.. I have no deed in me of myself, except he do it himself, my Beloved in me. And if I had the same that ye have, with the creation that ye have given me, and might also well do my will, as I do of the will that ye have given me: and also if I had this, that I were equal unto you save in this, that I might change my will for other than for me, ye should not do this, since ye would it without any of your goodness these three points that be right grievous to grant. For as I hold of my proper nature this which is evil, then am I all evils; and he is the greatness of all goodness that holdeth in him of his proper nature all goodness. And thus it behoveth her to lead, in breaking herself, for to enlarge the place where Love would have his being; and to encumber herself with many beings, so as to [dis]encumber herself to attain her being.. His love is not served in this, nor is this naught[297] it may not be. Not by the reaching out of the understanding of love, but by the reaching and attaining of more praise[201] of right passing love. Methley to the 'Mirror of Simple Souls'" (357#382). Perhaps he was one of the unknown fourteenth-century mystics who wrote as disciples of Rolle or Walter Hilton. Therefore whosoever would have these gifts let him flee desire and will, for otherwise they may not have them. And this is the fulfilling of her pilgrimages. And how we should not set little by a default done against God, CHAPTER V: How it is understood that the righteous man falleth seven times a day, CHAPTER VI: How this soul will say the sum of her demands, and how she knoweth not her own askings. And this will is come out of his goodness and it is given us by his grace. It is right, saith Love, that the most has made her drunk;[121] not indeed that she hath drunken of the most, as it is said before; but she hath it, for as much as her love hath it; for there is between him and her no disseverance nor contrariety of nature whatsoever, through any discord of love. If God hath drawn you into him, it doth not become you, saith Love, to forget what you were, when he made you first, and what you have been since if you took heed of your works and what you are and shall be, except [for] that which is of God in yourself.. This soul, saith Love, hath not withheld any will within her, she is fallen into naught-willing and into certainty of naught-witting, and this naught-willing and naught-witting hath stilled and wholly pacified her. And when I saw that, saith Love, I left you in your waywardness to your [own] knowledge. Such power hath the union of the unity of [the] divine indwelling., This soul, saith Love, suffereth the dead to bury the dead, and the marred[203] to work the works of virtues. The mirror of simple souls by Porete, Marguerite, approximately 1250-1310. The personification of the far night here is consistent with the style of these later portions, and indicates merely that the dark night is the means by which the soul attains to God in a state beyond conscious thought. The first is the death of sin, as it is before said. Goodness and goodwill is set above knowing. [90], This soul hath neither thought, word, nor work, except for the exercise of the divine grace of the Trinity; she is not troubled on account of sin that she ever did, nor for the suffering that Christ Jesu suffered for her, nor for sin, nor for distress[91] that her even-Christian have.[92], Ah God, saith Reason, what is this to say? [308] Thus have the aforesaid virtues naught to answer. And if I might comprehend one of these two natures I should comprehend both. And Truth said to me this, that none shall ascend but he only that should reflect[383] the Son of God himself. Lady, it may not be that ye had been [his mother]. I have not so much of being that may make me be of him. And when such [a soul] is naught, then liveth God himself in this creature without breaking the peace of his creature. That which is, is of his bounty; so loveth she his goodness which he hath by bounty given her. If this may not be then were God subject to his virtues, and the virtues should be against the soul; but they have being from our Lord, for the profit of the [soul]., Now, saith she, I shall tell the sum of my questions and these my questions shall be by the Sum fulfilled. Nor I wot not what I am, for I wot naught of my passing[386] feebleness, of my passing foolishness,[387] of my passing wickedness. He were purblind that would take it in this wise; but all such words in this book must be taken ghostly and divinely. Oh, what marvel it is they lead in dread, which suffereth them not that God work in them!, The second is that a soul behold what God counselleth to his special lovers, passing that that he commandeth. The fifth point is this, that this soul leaveth not, for God, to do anything that she would do., This is, saith Love, that this soul may not do [aught] but the will of God, nor may she will aught else; and for this she leaveth naught for God, for she hath not in her inward thought anything that is against God, and for this cause she leaveth naught for God., The sixth point is this, that none may her teach., Now for God, saith Reason, Lady Soul, say what this is!, This is to say, saith Love, that this soul is of such great knowledge that though she had all the knowing of all the creatures that ever had been and shall be, she would think it naught, as in regard of[65] that which she loveth, which was never known nor never shall be known. But God seeth it in her of his divine majesty, who clarifieth her by himself, so that she seeth that none is but God himself, who is that from whence all thing are. So went I not lightly away. In all things it behoveth to have discretion, except in love. [67] For that is all the glory of the love of my soul and shall be without end. Then it is good, right, and reason, that true innocence dwell with us. And then the soul is glad and joyful to hear and to read of all thing that pertaineth to this high feeling of the workings of divine love, by nourishing and increasing her love and devotion to the will and pleasing of him that she loves, God, Christ Jesu. In this ineffable and unthinkable way man merits to become of God, yet not God, for that which God is by nature, man is by Grace.. There is a certain rhythm in this latter part of the work, in the alternate descriptions of the condition of the free souls and that of the marred. A balance is kept where the tendency is to emphasise the lyrical side (cf. The three English MSS. This is the best that I can counsel, saith Reason, to all those that live under mine obedience. Pure is that which is of him, in love. without which virtues none may be saved, nor come to the life of perfection, and who hath them may not be deceived; and this soul hath taken leave of them; is she out of her wit that speaketh thus?, Oh without fail, nay, saith Love, for this soul hath better [than] all virtues, and more than any other creature. Uploaded by But it is necessary that some men should supply the needs of those who live by Faith in Holy Church. For all that ever a creature may do of works of goodness, it is naught as in regard of his bounty for the divine wisdom gave not his highful goodness to souls, but for his own goodness self. ABSTRACT In 1946 Romana Guarnieri identified Marguerite Porete as the author of the Mirror of Simple Souls. His being is always in the perfect plain of his pure will. What thing it is that giveth this soul and is most noble being that may be had in this life, CHAPTER XV: What thing it is that hath given this soul freedom in enduring of things, CHAPTER XVI: Of the peace of this divine life, and how Mary Magdalen had it when she was in the desert. I have no life.. This gift maketh in her very perfection, and so it hath moved her to the nature of love that delighteth her with fulfilled peace and feedeth and filleth her with divine food. Not even so, in many cases, can I claim to understand, or to offer more than a guess for my version of the text. The article looks at Marguerite Porete and her Mirror of Simple Souls through the lens of Michel Foucault's ideas of veridiction, and its four distinctive types: prophecy, wisdom, teaching, and parrhesia. For God suffereth some time some evil to be done for greater good that afterward shall grow. And if ye cannot come soon to the understanding thereof, offer it meekly up to God, and by the custom of oft reading thereon, ye shall come thereto. It may well be that there be many fausets in a tun, but the most clear wine and the most fresh and profitable and the most delectable and the most inebriating without fail, is the wine of the sovereign fauset, of which none drinketh but the Trinity. This is sooth, saith Love, that this soul sets not so much prize nor love on temporal things, that she could win [anything] in refusing natures askings; wherefore then should she make [it a matter of] conscience, to give nature that which is his due? The form derives, perhaps, from the verse Jeu-Partis. Himself saith in the Gospel: Whoever believeth in me, he shall do such works as I do, and yet more greater shall he do. This identification of mystical union with the impoverishment of the soul is present also in Marguerite Porete's earlier spiritual allegory, the full title of which is The Mirror of simple annihilated souls and those who only remain in will and desire of love. Therefore by right, Reason may not see this, for his being must fail and [come to an] end. And then I said this, that if I had of my proper condition this [which was] aforesaid, I should love better and rather choose that it went to naught without recovering, than that I should have it, unless it came of him. The originality of the form and the boldness of the outlook combine to distinguish the Mirror from the Latin treatises on the spiritual life, current in the religious world of the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth centuries. Amen. O courteous without measure, this ought to seem well to me, saith this soul, when you will meekly suffer. Lord, this is a greater thing to embrace our hearts in the love of you, by thinking on one of your benefits that ye have done for us, than were all the world and the heaven and the earth, if they were set on fire for to destroy one body. But those have a good time and profitable who seek him neither by more nor less, nor on plains,[236] nor on mountains, but have him in all places, by union of the gift of will., O right well born! saith Reason, where seek ye him?, I find him over all, saith this soul, he is one Deity, one only God in three Persons. No doubt this is the part of which the translator warned us that the French boke is yuel writen and in sum places for defaute of words and silables the reson is awaye. He has exercised his discretion, but in these latter obscurities, thinking that prudence was the better part of valour, has often translated word for word, so that the hopeless obscurity of his English version occasionally yields some light if it be translated back literally into Old French. And then I said to him that if I wist it might more please him that I loved another more than him? This article first returns to Guarnieri's announcement and subsequent statements on the subject in order to highlight both their strengths and their . There the soul is abandoned in God for him, in him, of himself. web pages Now appease yourself! Then follows a piece of autobiography. For in him who that hath two purposes at one time, the one lessens[134] for the other. even though we had the same, that is said in this writing, by comparison, if it might be so, [that] all should be naught in regard of the greatness of one spark of his bounty, that dwelleth in the knowing of him, beyond our knowledge. Now she is so upheld and so entered into divine election, that she beginneth to speak where you take your end. These folks be the least that may be, as in their own sight, witness of God himself, who saith that the least shall be the most in the kingdom of heaven. For this soul, saith the Holy Ghost, hath given us all that she hath of worth, and the same that we have, she herself hath given us by manner of speech; for it is said, and sooth it is, that good will is accounted for deed. O right well born, saith Love, to this precious days eye,[200] and ye are truly in free [hold] dwelling, where none entereth except he be of your lineage without bastardise. There dangers may no more appear, but glorious life is had. This God is over all in his divine nature, but the manhood is in heaven glorified and joined to the divine person of the Son, and [beside that] only in the holy Sacrament of the Altar. And if you had, saith Love, obeyed when I called you by the wills of Virtues that I sent you, you had had by rights the freedom that I have. For wit it for sooth, that they whom encumbrances trouble, be full far from this life that we have spoken of., Now, for love, saith Understanding of divine light, tell me, among you, who have somewhat to answer, what ye understand by this., And we shall tell you, say the souls of-wit-of-nature, what we understand by this. She is glad almost that her Beloved is such a one that men can tell her nothing adequate of him, and even Loves consolations fail to satisfy her high conception of Pure Love. Reason, saith the soul, that ye hear me complain, it is mine all and my best in well-understanding. I have said, saith Love, that ye [should] understand it and that ye haste you thereto, for without strong understanding, subtle and right noble, none may reach it. And they have so great pleasure in their works, that they have no knowing that there is any better being than the being of works of virtue and deaths of martyrdom, and they desire to persevere in this by help of meditations fulfilled with prayers, in multiplied means of good will, alway. There is the divine school held with closed mouth, that no wit of man may put into speech., Ah, Love, saith Reason, say among us something of the country where this soul dwelleth., Thus it is, saith Love, where this soul is, of him, in him, for him; that is, without receiving from any, but purely from him. The first cost that this soul which is free hath, is this, that she hath no grudging of conscience, though she work not the work of virtues. And I see that I know myself, and that taketh from me also the knowing of myself, for otherwise might I no knowing have of myself., This is sooth, saith Love, what you say, Lady Soul. Lord, ye be one bounty, by bounty outpoured and all in you, and I am one wickedness by wickedness all outpoured and all in me. These be they that have in earth neither shame nor worship, nor dread for thing that befalleth. So they stand to attend [upon], and wait to follow the Lords work, who is sovereign master; for if they do the contrary, truly, it will unrest them. Moreover, they agreed that the fair promises of so high a spirituality might lead the unwise to adopt a course more exacting in its claims than they could foresee, and to which, not being called by God, they should certainly never attain. Cf. This is the uncreated goodness[348] that he hath made created; so leadeth goodness unwrought, the goodness that he hath wrought. I will nothing that is not of the bounty of Love. Lo ye that study this book, thus ye must within yourselves gloss such dark words. These teach not the soul, nor any other usages, but pure love; for he who would have the comforts of God by feelings of consolation, he breaketh the price of fine love. And she wot all, for she seeth by the deepness of knowing of her naught, which is so great to her sight, that she findeth neither beginning, measure, nor end of it; but a deep darkness without ground or bottom. This Love, the Holy Ghost, swimmeth in a soul and is poured out in abundance of delights, of a gift right high that is given of upraised ravishing, by knitting of union of the sovereign Beloved, that giveth himself simply and simple her maketh. Note that it is the possession of a faculty, not its absence, which makes them that have, have not.. And then this I said to him, that if it might be that he might will that another loved me more than he loveth me? Such physician hath Fervour-of-spirit.[289], I have said, saith Love, that they do the asking of their inwardness, if it be asked, for otherwise I command it them not; and if they leave all the will of their outwardness, This is sooth, saith Love, whoso that doubteth in this, if he had assayed,[290] he should wit the sooth., Now I shall tell you, saith Love, of the soul in freeness, and also of them of the life which we have spoken of, that we call life of spirit, it may have no peace unless the body do always the contrary of its will.

The soul of such love, saith Love himself, may say thus to virtues: I take leave of you. To which virtues this soul many a day hath been servant., I assent. She hath wholly lost her wits,[165] in this usage, so that she cannot seek God nor find him in her soul, nor lead herself., This soul, saith Love, is not with-herself, and she is excused for everything; and he in whom she is, made his work for himself; he hath her well acquit witness of God himself, saith Love, that is the worker of this work, to the profit of this soul, which is not with-herself.[166], Ah, Love, saith Dread, where is this soul then, that is not with-herself?, There where she loveth, saith Love, without her witting,[167] and therefore liveth this soul without grudging of conscience. And I tell you that when Jesus Christ transfigured him before three of his disciples, he did it for this, that ye should wit well, that few folks see the brightness of his transfiguration, and that he showeth it not but to his special lovers. Nor he loveth never divinely who loveth bodily. O Lord God, right courteous and large and free, acquit me of this debt, you that have power all things to do! But his goodness may not suffer his power to unfree me of free will, in nowise. Him so high and me so low, that I might no more from thence rise, nor help of myself have and that was best. Ah, Love, saith Reason, what is this to say?. First we take the Far night, the experience described by the Areopagite as a dark knowing of God. Lord, ye be Father and Son and Holy Ghost, and I am feebleness, foolishness and wickedness. From this ravishable opening, and at the spreading of this opening, the soul hath taken her shutting and abideth in the peace of this work, right free and noble, and discharged of all encumbrances and of all things, as long as the peace endureth that is given in this opening. . Ah, what had he in thought, who this book made? And since the bounty by me is known, I am his glory and his laud, for none other thing is his glory nor his laud, but the knowing of his divine bounty. To be in that state is to be in paradise, though she is not there in a physical state; or possibly she is in paradise without [consciousness] of any particular state (being).. Those that are dipped[163] in meekness, saith Love. And nothing that is wrought entereth within these souls, but, only that God who hath made them; so that none knoweth such souls but God that is within these souls., Ah, Lady Love, saith Reason, be not displeased, for yet I must have one more question. For by right, the contemplatives should pass the state of scholars, as masters of divinity be passed schools. And they live on the chaff of rye and of rough barley, that have maintained[371] usages of outward wills, which be of human natures. And now that the virtues work by commandment of this soul, they be subjects to this soul, and this soul is lady over virtues. We cannot determine whether these analyses belonged to the earlier MS. of the book, but it seems improbable, for there is no indication of them either in the British Museum or Cambridge, or the Latin MSS. These souls, saith Love, that such be, have so long led in love and in obedience of virtues, that they be become free.. For these twain aforesaid unmake this peace, if it may so befall; but not of this soul, for she is in sovereignty. These three verses occur in many mediaeval MSS. For one thing, Lady Love, I will say, that if it might so be that one of his creatures had in himself [by Gods gift] as much power and will to give me joy and glory as all those receive of his [heavenly] court unless he himself properly gave it me, I should refuse it without end, rather than [that] I should take it or desire it of any other, than of himself. I beheld him in me and me in him, and willed great wills for him. He that is lame of limbs may not well go, nor the feeble may not swim. Why so? saith Reason. Also, she is naked from her body, for as the skin [of an animal] is made naked of bodily clothing, right so is her spirit naked from her body, so that it is not in the body, for the sensuality of her body is worn away and delivered by divine works.
