Preface Introductory Essay -- The book of the lover and the beloved E. Allison Peers --

The book f the Lover and the Beloved takes us from African preachings and disputations of the Sorbonne to long night-watches and days of retreat which must always have accompanied them, but which we are apt to forget in contemplating that form of activity which the world counts greatest. Or the thoughts which the Book gives us may first have come to the young convert in the solitude on his monastery and the retreat of Mount Randa. -- Page 10.
