Description:Virgins who have the happiness of dedicating themselves to the love of Jesus Christ by consecrating to him the lily of their purity, are, in the first place, as dear to God as his angels. They shall, says the Redeemer, be like the angels of God in heaven. Such is the immediate fruit of the virtue of chastity. Hence St. Ambrose says, that “ whoever preserves this virtue is an angel, and that whoever violates it is a demon.” Baronius relates that when a certain virgin, called Georgia, was at the point of death a great multitude of doves was seen hovering about her; that when her body was brought to the church they flew to that part of the roof which corresponded to the place where the corpse had been put, and remained there till after the interment. By all who saw them, these doves were regarded as angels paying respect and homage to the body of the virgin. Chastity is justly styled an angelic and celestial virtue.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
