The Manual for Little Ones

Name: The Manual for Little Ones
Author: Thomas à Kempis

Thomas à Kempis

This book is in Latin.

Fifteen chapters for beginners in the spiritual life: the call of the little ones to Christ, humility and purity, the good use of the imagination, prayer, the guarding of the heart and the reward of eternal life. Latin only: Pohl's critical edition (Freiburg 1918), from a raw OCR of the printed volume; no public-domain English translation has been found.

Source: Chapters as Pohl divides them, with his upper-case chapter titles recased (u/v normalised by script). Line numbers, running heads and page breaks stripped by script; Pohl's critical footnotes and introduction are not imported. Raw OCR: drop capitals at chapter openings and isolated letters are often garbled; a chapter heading lost to OCR runs two chapters together.
