A Prayer of St. Catherine of Siena (Burlamacchi edition)

St. Catherine of Siena

This book is in Italian.

The prayer to the Holy Spirit that St. Catherine of Siena wrote in her own hand, with the editor Burlamacchi’s long historical note (Milan 1842) on its versions. The twenty-six Orazioni she dictated to her secretaries are not yet imported: no clean digital text exists.

Contents

Source: The prayer and the editor’s note with its footnotes. Only this one prayer is available as clean text; the 26 Orazioni (Cavallini numbering) exist only in Gigli 1707 vol. IV scans.
