(Pt2) O the unexplainable mystery! Neither can my hand put my intended meaning to writing. I wish the Creator of this mystery himself would explain it to you... For if man reaches this degree he does not pray for those who asked him to pray, rather mercy alone moves him to pity toward all who are in need. It is the Spirit, who is in him and is one with him, who heals their ailments and satisfies their needs...

     At the time when this gift is active within man, even if the whole creation turns into noise and tumult, it cannot force him to come to himself or return out of his rapture or ecstasy. (D)
