This book is in French.

The personal writings of St. Jane Frances de Chantal: her Little Book (the counsels of direction she received from St. Francis de Sales), her canticles, her retreat exercises and resolutions, the questions she put to the holy bishop with his answers, the private papers found on her and placed in her coffin, and her retreat rule.

Contents

Source: OCR cleaned by script. The canticles are printed as one paragraph per OCR block (the verse lines run together). Much of the Petit livret and the Réponses is the teaching of Francis de Sales as she noted it.
