Abstract

An essay is presented on the character of miscellaneous prose and poetry depicted in two personal letters written to devout nuns. It describes the contents of the first letter, where the writer protests of his or her devotion, ending in a prayer for the nun to Jesus Christ. The author also discusses the contents of the second letter which is seemingly a response to a letter by a devout nun, and offers a contemplation of the way of the cross and the Passion of Jesus Christ.
