St Gertrude the Great

Robert Imbelli at Commonweal, on St Gertrude of Helfta: "the price of such attention [to the Word of God--MP] may well be for us, what is was for Gertrude: the turning of a world upside down".  "Alia vero ceciderunt in terram bonam et dabant fructum: aliud centesimum, aliud sexagesimum, aliud tricesimum.  Qui habet aures, audiat".
