Book 1
The nature of the obscure night, the necessity of passing through it in order to attain to the divine union: and especially the obscure night of sense and desire, with the evils which these inflict on the soul.
STANZA I.

With anxious love inflamed,
0, happy lot!
Forth unobserved I went,
My house being now at rest.
Chapter 6
Two great evils of the desires : negative and positive. Proofs from Scripture.
