Complete edition of Introduction to the Devout Life by St Francis de Sales. In these very accessible contemplations, de Sales addresses all of us, in all walks of life, as if he was sitting with the reader at his table.

This is a must read to think about our relationship with God, and something to own and contemplate over many years.

To assist with understanding the middle English text, many words have been translated in the footnotes.
