Section I: On Joy
1.
First, the Soul, adorned with the stole of Charity, brightens into the affection of Joy; wherefore, before his other effects, joy must above all be treated; and since the kind of gladness is manifold, that Joy which is the true offspring of Charity must be distinguished from the others.
De Gaudio.
Primo Anima, decorata Charitatis stola, in Gaudii affectum exhilarascit; quare ante alios ipsius effectus imprimis de gaudio agendum est; et quoniam multiplex est laetitiae genus; ideo Gaudium illud, quod est vera Charitatis proles, ab aliis secernendum est.
