that devotion is false if slothful [lui].
She considered her work as an employment assigned to her by God. And as part of her penance. And obeyed her master and mistress in all things as being placed over her by God.
She always rose several hours before the rest of the family, and employed in prayer a considerable part of the time which others gave to sleep.
She took care to hear mass every morning with great devotion, before she was called upon by the duties of her station, in which she was employed the whole day, with such diligence and fidelity that she seemed to be carried to them on wings, and studied when possible to anticipate them.
