SONG 2
In the dark and safe by the secret ladder, disguised, oh happy chance!, in the dark and in the cell, my house already being calm.
STATEMENT
1. The soul goes singing in this song still some properties of the darkness of this night, repeating the good happiness that came with them. He says them, responding to a certain tacit objection, saying that it should not be thought that, for having gone through so much storm of anguish, doubts, misgivings and horrors in this night and darkness, as has been said, he was therefore in greater danger of losing himself, because before in the darkness of this night it was won; because in it she escaped and subtly escaped from her opponents, who always blocked her way, because in the darkness of the night she changed her clothes and disguised herself with three liveries and colors that we will mention later, and on a very secret scale, which no one She knew it from home, which, as we will also note in her place, is the living faith, for which she went out so covertly and in disguise, to be able to do her deed well, that she could not help going very safe, mostly being already in this purgative night the appetites, affections and passions, etc., of his soul asleep, morticated and extinguished, which are those who, being awake and alive, did not consent to it. Follow, then, the verse, and it says thus:
In the dark and safe.
