Consid�rations sur la Passion
Quoique j'aie d�j� trait� plusieurs fois de la passion de J�sus-Christ, dans mes opuscules spirituels, je pense qu'il ne sera pas inutile aux �mes de leur offrir encore ici beaucoup d'autres r�flexions que j'ai lues dans diff�rents livres ou que j'ai faites moi-m�me. J'ai jug� bon de les �crire pour le bien des autres, mais plus encore pour mon propre avantage spirituel; car, me, trouvant en ce moment � l'�ge de soixante-dix sept ans, et cons�quemment pr�s de la mort, j'ai voulu m'occuper de ces consid�rations pour me pr�parer au jour de mes comptes. Et en effet, je m'en sers pour faire mes pauvres m�ditations, en en lisant tr�s souvent quelques passages, afin de me trouver, quand sonnera ma derni�re heure, les yeux fix�s sur J�sus crucifi�, qui est toute mon esp�rance; c'est ainsi que je compte avoir le bonheur de rendre mon �me entre ses mains.
