How much, O my Master, would I like to stay with you in silence. But what I love more than anything is that your will should be done, and since for now you want me to live in the world, I submit to this with all my heart for love of you. I give you the cell of my heart to be for you another Bethany. Come rest with me, I love you so. Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity
