"An Introduction to the Devout Life," a work intended to lead
"Philothea," the soul living in the world, into the paths of
devotion, that is to say, of true and solid piety. Every one should
strive to become pious, and "it is an error, it is even a heresy,"
to hold that piety is incompatible with any state of life. In the
first part the author helps the soul to free itself from all
inclination to, or affection for, sin; in the second, he teaches it
how to be united to God by prayer and the sacraments; in the third,
he exercises it in the practice of virtue; in the fourth, he
strengthens it against temptation; in the fifth, he teaches it how
to form its resolutions and to persevere. The "Introduction," which
is a masterpiece of psychology, practical morality, and common
sense, was translated into nearly every language even in the
lifetime of the author, and it has since gone through innumerable
editions.
