Love Perfect and Divine
By St.Francis de Sales
Being his Introduction to the Devout Life and Treatise on the Love of God
Summarised by Duncan Greenless
The Purpose of this Book . The Saint has written this book to guide the soul into the true knowledge and love of God even while living in the world. This is not an easy road to tread, it is true, yet a keen and faithful soul can live in the world without being in any way tainted by it. To such a soul who would do this, then, it is directed.
