English

Since the novitiate is short, it is fitting that it be used in the best fashion possible: "Far from finding long the short period of time devoted to preparation, it must be confessed that it is not ample enough for the purpose of divesting oneself of what remains of the old man, of adorning one's soul with the many virtues we lack and thus disposing ourselves to make to God an offering as little unworthy of him as possible" [29].

Spanish

Ya que el noviciado es corto, conviene emplearlo del mejor modo: "Muy lejos de encontrar largo el poco tiempo consagrado a prepararse, hay que reconocer que no es suficiente para despojarse de los restos del hombre viejo, adornar el alma con tantas virtudes que nos faltan, y disponerse así a hacerle a Dios una ofrenda lo menos indigna posible" [29].
