13th How do these stages relate
a
These stages are related by their mutual services so close together that the first little or no use without the following and that the following rarely or never achieved without the previous be. What it helps, then, spend the time with long readings, life and browse through the writings of the saints, without taking by chewing and ruminating on the strength of it, which then gets to the bottom of my heart, so that we are reading this appropriate to our state of mind recognize it and strive to imitate the works of those whose lives we like to read? On the other hand, how can we think about how we can avoid, incorrect and useless meditation exceed the limits to which we have been advised of the holy fathers, if we were not warned beforehand by reading or by instruction? Because the instruction is too much like reading, so that we speak not only for reading, if we read for ourselves or for others, but also where we have been taught by a master.
