  abstract: Anonymous English manuscript for personal devotion, with guidance for a young woman entering her novitiate, likely written on the Continent for a recusant Englishwoman entering one of the many English convents in the Spanish Netherlands (corresponding more or less to modern Belgium). The first part compares the married state to consecrated religious life; the second part gives instructions for the first three years of a woman's novitiate. The third and longest part defines and explains the virtues, including a discussion on virginity.
  note: Written in a clear secretary hand on paper with an unidentified watermark.
  note: Inscribed in pencil "Rev. F. O'Reilly, London, Aug. 11, 1902" on front paste-down; ownership inscription in ink of the (now former) Monastery of the Visitation SIsters of Saint Louis, Mo., Aug. 190[2?] in front fluy-leaf. An advertisement from a previous bookseller, printed on newsprint, is pasted onto the recto of the leaf preceding the beginning of the text. TXA
  note: Pressed leaves inserted three leaves from the end of the book. TXA
