The first of these undoubtedly is found in the Comentarios (P. III, Obra iii, cap. 3), but it was perfectly admissible doctrine at the period. Aspilcueta, who was no mystic, tells us, in 1577, that prayer is worthless unless uttered in lively faith and ardent charity; innumerable priests are consigned to purgatory or to hell on account of their prayers, each one of which is at least a venial sin.--De Oratione, cap. viii.
It illustrates the progress of the movement against mysticism that the Index of Zapata, in 1632 (p. 980) orders a passage in Don Quixote to be _borrado_ in which this is expressed much less offensively--"Las obras de Charidad que se hasen tibia y floxamente no tienen merito ni valen nada."

In 1576 Alonso González Carmena was tried at Toledo for saying that the only object of the Inquisition was to get money, and instancing a wealthy damsel of Llerena recently arrested as an Alumbrado. He probably considered his assertions verified by having to pay a fine of 4000 maravedís, in addition to six months' exile.--MSS. of Library of Univ. of Halle, Yc, 20, T. I.

These nineteen errors are here printed with their confutations, but without indication of date or of the authority under which they were prepared. They are also contained, with a different series of confutations, in the mass of papers concerning the Pelagini, in the Ambrosian Library, H, S., VI, 29, fol. 28.
This also contains (fol. 30) a series of instructions for detecting the Quietist heresy, consisting of a list of forty-three errors. Some of these set forth so concisely the leading tenets ascribed, with tolerable accuracy, to the Quietists, that they are worth presenting here.
21. They seek to annihilate the memory, the intellect and the will; to remember nothing, to understand nothing, to desire nothing, and they say that when they have thus emptied themselves they are refilled by God.
22. They say that God operates in their souls without coöperation; that their spirit is identified with God, so that they are purely passive, surrendering their freewill to God who takes possession of it.
23. Thus such souls are preserved from even venial sins of advertence and, if they commit some inadvertently they are not imputed.
24. Also some proceed to claim impeccability, because they cannot sin when God operates in them without their participation.
25. If these souls commit sinful acts, they say it is through the violence of the demon, with the permission of God, for their torment and purgation.
28. Examination of conscience to ascertain if there has been consent to such acts is not expedient, for it distracts introversion and disturbs the quiet of the soul.
[108] Bibl. Casanatense MSS., X, VII, 45, fol. 289.
I cannot but regard this as a truthful report. It accords with the briefer abstract in the final sentence, which distinguishes between the articles proved by witnesses and denied by Molinos and those which he admitted. Reusch (Der Index, II, 617-18) states that the sentence has been printed in the _Analecta Juris Pontificii_, 6, 1653, and in the Appendix to Francke's translation of the _Guida Spirituale_, published in 1687. I have a copy from the Royal Library of Munich, Cod. Ital. 185, and there is one in the Bibliothèque nationale, fonds italien, 138, which also contains the 263 articles drawn from his correspondence, with his answers.

[110] The account of the atto di fede is derived from the MS. Casanatense, X, VII, 45, and a relation printed by Laemmer, _Meletematum Romanorum Mantissa_, pp. 407 sqq., who also prints (pp. 412-22) the sentence of Pedro Peña.
The contemporary printed sources of the whole affair are _Trois Lettres touchant l'Etat present d'Italie_, Cologne, 1688; _Recueil de diverses pièces concernant le Quietisme et les Quietistes_, Amsterdam, 1688, and Bernino, _Historia di tutte l'Heresie_, IV, 711 sqq. The concise account by Reusch (_Der Index_, II, 611 sqq.) is written with his accustomed thoroughness and careful use of all accessible sources. John Bigelow's "Molinos the Quietist" (New York, 1882) is a popular narrative which rejects the charges of immorality. See also Heppe, _Geschichte der quietistischen Mystik_, pp. 110 sqq., 260 sqq.

[122] Bossuet, who read her autobiography in MS. tells us of this tympanitic condition and the splitting of her garments (De Quietismo, _ap._ Laemmer, _op. cit._, p. 423). In the printed life, this special feature is omitted, but the passage has every appearance of curtailment (II, 33, cf. 234; III, 9).
[123] Bossuet's side in this controversy is elaborately set forth in Phelippeaux's posthumous "Relation de l'Origine, du Progrès et de la Condemnation du Quiétisme," 2 vols., 1732 (_s. l._). Also in Bossuet's "Relation sur le Quiétisme" and subsequent controversial writings, Paris, 1698. Madame Guyon's statements are contained in "La Vie de Madame J. M. B. de la Mothe Guion, écrite por Elle-même," 3 vols. Cologne, 1720. She is defended in the "Lettres de M. xxx (Abbé de la Blatterie) à un Ami au sujet de la Relation du Quiétisme," 1733 (_s. l._). Fénelon's writings on the subject are in his _OEuvres_, T. II, Paris, 1838.

Spain is by no means the only seat of these manifestations. In 1848 there was at Niederbronn, near Strassburg, a bride of Christ named Elizabeth Eppinger who, though denied the supreme favor of the stigmata, had trances and visions and the gift of prophecy. She founded the Order of _Filles du Redempteur_, over which she presided as Soeur Alphonse.--Abbé Busson, Lettres sur l'Extatique de Niederbronn (Besançon, 1849-53).
The grace of the stigmata is likewise not uncommon. About 1825 there flourished Katharine Emmerich, the nun of Dülmen, and contemporary with her were three girls in Tyrol, Maria von Mörl, Domenica Lazzari and Crescenzia Nicklutsch, all of whom enjoyed also the customary visions and ecstasies. The learned Joseph Görres was one of the believing pilgrims who put on record his experiences. At the same time Provence boasted of a similar _beata_, Madame Miollis, known as the _stigmatisée du Var_, at Villecroze.--Die Tyrolen ekstasischen Jungfrauen (Regensburg, 1843).--Nicolas, L'extatique et les stigmatisées du Tyrol (Paris, 1844).--Boré, Les stigmatisées du Tyrol, 2^{e}. Ed. (Paris, 1846).
The more recent case of Louise Lateau, in Belgium, is well known. All this, however, is trivial in comparison with the development of stigmatisation among the followers of Pierre-Michel Vintras, in France. In 1850 it was reckoned that no less than three hundred were favored with this distinguishing mark of divine approval.--André, Affaire Rose Tamisier, p. 5 (Carpentras, 1851).

The clause concerning solicitation in the Edict of Faith, published at Valencia, Feb. 24, 1630, shows this and also the devices used to elude the technical definition of the offence. "Or, whether any confessor or confessors, clerics or religious of whatever station pre-eminence or condition, in the act of confession or immediately before or after it, or with occasion or appearance of confession, although there is no opportunity and no confession may have followed, but in the confessional or any place where confessions are made, or which is destined for that purpose, when the impression is produced that confession is being made or heard, have solicited or attempted to solicit any one, inducing or provoking them to foul and indecent acts, whether between the penitent and confessor or others, or have held indecent and illicit conversation with them. And we exhort and order all confessors to admonish their penitents, whom they understand to have been solicited, of the obligation to denounce the solicitors to this Holy Office, which has exclusive cognizance of this crime."--Archivo hist. nacional, Inq. de Valencia, Lib. 7 de Autos, Leg. 2, fol. 114.

[216] There were many probabilist authorities who held that the fact that such acts as kissing, pressing the hands, handling the breasts, etc., were committed in the confessional did not change them from venial to mortal sins. See Del Bene de Officio S. Inquis. P. II, Dub. 237, Sect. 3, n. 3 (Lugduni, 1666). Cf. Cozza, Dub. III, n. 18.
In 1743 a lively controversy arose between the rigorists and the Jesuits over the _Tatti mammillari_ caused by a proposition of Father Benzi S. J. that stroking the cheeks of nuns and handling their breasts were venial, when unaccompanied with depraved intentions.--Concina, Explicazione di quattro Paradossi, cap. 1 § 1 (Lucca, 1746).

[225] The more important of these decisions were--
3 There is no _parvitas materiæ_ in solicitation.
8 When the solicitation is mutual, the confessor is to be denounced.
9 A confessor yielding to solicitation through fear is to be denounced.
10 Solicitation in other sacraments does not fall within the papal bulls.
11 Solicitation to other than carnal sins during confession does not require denunciation.
12 When a confessor praises the beauty of a penitent, if the praise is serious and without evil intention, he is not liable to denunciation; if otherwise, he is.
13 If a confessor sitting in a confessional solicits a woman standing before him without pretext of confession he is probably not liable to denunciation.
14 A confessor who makes during confession a present to the penitent, without evil intention is not liable to denunciation; otherwise he is.--Berardi de Sollicitatione, p. 5.
