Excerpt from Retreats for the Soul

In offering this companion volume to "The Love of Jesus," I have once more to express my acknowledgments to Messrs. Methuen & Co., who have kindly allowed me to make extracts from the "Preces Privat?" of Bishop Andrewes, published in their Library of Devotion, and to Messrs. Longman for similar permission with reference to their edition of "The Spiritual Combat." I thank the Rev. George Longridge, C.R., and the Editor of "Manuals for the Million," for leave to reprint "A Plain Guide to Meditation," from No. 26 of the "Manuals," which are published by Messrs. Mowbray & Co., Ltd. I have further to acknowledge the courtesy of the Rev. Father Plater, S.J., who has allowed me to quote largely from his fascinating book "Retreats for the People" (Sands & Co.), and of Miss Evelyn Underhill, who has most kindly permitted me to use the two beautiful poems which appear as Nos. 5 5 and 56 in this volume. Thanks are also due to the S.P.C.K. for permission to reprint two of Miss Christina Rossetti's poems, to Miss Hatch for the use of No. 53, by the late Dr. Hatch, and to Messrs.
