"The Martyrdom of Saint Perpetua" ...so there I was with my sureties and the Ghost of mt Father in urge to vex me with his severe words to hurst my faith in God. And here he came, my Brother, who with sweet words told me: lady my Sister, thou art now in high honour, even such that thou mightest ask for a vision. And it should be shown thee whether this be a passion or else a deliverance. And I, as knowing that I conversed with the Lord, for Whose sake I had suffered such things, did promise him, nothing doubting. And I said: To-morrow, I will tell thee. And I asked, and this that I told you was shown me. EP, Oxford 6.8.2001
