St. John of Ávila
Listen, O daughter, consider, and incline your ear.
— Ps 45:10 – the title of his work Audi, filia
A Spanish preacher imprisoned by the Inquisition for his sermons – in prison he wrote his best-known work. He was spiritual director to St. Teresa of Ávila, St. John of God and St. Francis Borgia. Light can come even out of a prison.
