Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Spiritual Exercises of St. Igbatius: Adapted to an Eight Days Retreat and Six Triduums in Preparation for the Semi-Annual Renovation of the Vows, All for the Use of Jesuits Only
The Text of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, as translated into English from the Spanish Auto graph, and edited for private circulation by Rev. John Morris, S. J., is printed in a small volume of only 125 pages. That little work contains all that the Saint composed in the Grotto of Manresa, and he never afterward wrote any additions to the text. But in explaining his Exercises to his first companions, and to others who made the retreat under his direction, he would adapt the details to their characters and the various circumstances. His followers did the same, without writing further additions or commentaries on the original text; they followed in their practice the traditional method as it had come to them from their saintly founder.
