Gates, waiting for that very Will that had possessed me on earth to
receive me in Heaven first; and then, after my entrance into the beatific
Celestial Will, they could withdraw, each one to its place.
But, since I could not do this, I felt melancholic, and so I was going
around throughout the whole Creation. Now, while I was doing this, a
loud, harmonious and silvery voice made itself heard from the centre of
Creation, saying: “Your sad note has communicated itself to all created

quickly, quickly so that they may not have the time to give me this
obedience.”
But while I was saying this, I seemed to see the heavens, the sun and
all Creation bowing around me to pay homage; and Jesus added: “My
