Commentary | Reference to don Diego de Miranda's life; "reparto de mis bienes con los pobres, sin hacer alarde de las buenas obras, por no dar entrada en mi corazón a la hipocresía y vanagloria, enemigos que blandamente se apoderan del corazón más recatado" (16:2).
The composition is quite theatrical, but remarkable. |
