The Valley of Lilies
The second garden book, in thirty-four chapters on the virtues the lily stands for: humility, patience, the tongue, the heart, union with God and the eternal praise of God, each chapter opening on a scripture verse. The Latin is Pohl's critical edition (Freiburg 1918), from a raw OCR of the printed volume; the English is the anonymous 1867 Baltimore translation.
