Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Book of the Twelve Beguines
The language chosen has been always the simplest possible, in order to retain, as far as practicable, the primitive ?avour of the original; but it should be remembered that Ruysbroeck himself often uses long words, though always in their simplest signification.
I have thought it useful to summarise brie?y the contents of the work, and this Summary will be found immediately after the Introduction.
