What it is
Conferences to young canons on humility, silence, the danger of curiosity, and the ordinary discipline of a house of the Common Life.
Why it lasted
The same voice as the Imitation in a plainer register, and evidence of the setting that produced it.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
