The Fire of Love and the Mending of Life (Old Saxon, Paperback)

"Here in one volume are two classic books by English religious writer, hermit, and mystic RICHARD ROLLE DE HAMPOLE (13001349). In The Mending of Life, Rolle tells the story of his life and his miracles, from the pain of his conversion as a young man to his settling after a period of wandering with the Cistercian nuns in the tiny hamlet of Hampole, near Doncaster in England. In The Fire of Love, Rolle extols an exquisite love of God through poetry and prose, discussing the importance of the love of God in a life of faith, and also relates his disagreements with the Church of his time. Those interested in the medieval literature, the history of mysticism, and in unique perspectives on the faith should take a look at these important works by the writer generally considered the father of English mysticism."

Written in Old Saxon English.
