Life

She was a talented child from an early age. At the age of 18, science and music teachers recognized her talent, so she was an organ singing chapel teacher for more than forty years. She had numerous illnesses, but these did not prevent her from continuous attendance to her work.Шаблон:Fact

She was a woman of great intelligence, according to her convent companions, and learned Latin quickly. One day she read the Opuscule of Saint Bernard and based on she wrote her Huerto del Celestial Esposo, imitating the style and simple terms, with which she wrote all her works.Шаблон:Fact

She became abbess in 1626 and, when her prelacy ended, her health deteriorated. She suffered severe pains, but bore them patiently most of the time except at the end, when she showed great affliction until she went to confession and finally died on October 3, 1637. She died at the age of 72 and after 65 years dedicated to religion.[1]
