The Imitation of Christ, also by Thomas À Kempis, is the most famous and beloved Christian devotional ever written. The simplicity, piety and wisdom that readers have found in that classic will also be discovered in these new modern-English translations of A Little Garden of Roses and The Valley of Lilies. The aim of these works is to draw the reader to a closer union with Jesus. While Imitation sets forth the principles of discipleship, the two works in this volume offer more practical advice. They treat of the virtues needed to advance toward God. The introduction to this volume includes a brief biographical sketch of Thomas À Kempis, a fourteenth-century German monk, as well as some notes about the texts themselves. Like all meditation books, explains the introduction, this one is not to be read in one sitting, but pondered and prayed over slowly. "Pause and reflect on what [À Kempis] has to say," advises Fr. Joseph Tylenda, the translator, "and then join with him when he address the Lord and listen to Him when He speaks to you."

Excerpt from Thomas a Kempis, Vol. 1: And the Brothers of Common Life The present work has been the labour of many years, with the exception of some long intervals needed for other matters. The character of it was such that it could not be hastily written, since much patient research and labour were required, careful thought, and, in no small degree, a thorough com prehension of the works of Thomas a Kempis. In the Introductory Chapter the apology for writing these Memorials. The plan pursued, and the sources from whence the materials for the work have been taken, are set forth and it is only to notice a few other matters that this preface is needed. Two or three objects have been kept steadily in view. First, to collect and set in order the many varied and scattered particulars relative to the Life and Writings of Thomas a Kempis. It was peculiarly a hidden life, of which it was only possible to catch occasional glimpses, from what the old biographers said of him; while there still remained much that could be learnt respecting him, though indirectly.
