179. As soon as the interior parts of the body start to grow cold, the vital substances are separated from the person, wherever these may be, even if enclosed in a thousand complicated entanglements. For the effectiveness of the Lord's mercy, which I had already experienced as a living power of attraction, is so great that nothing vital can remain behind.
