A description of the experience
Richard Rolle - Incendium Amoris
When you are filled with [divine love], the will produces human love, so that all speaking and acting of evil thought or word, and work are drawn back.
When the man turns to Christ perfectly, he submits to the desire of the Creator.
Savour the warmth, it feels like a fire burning. He is imbued with a wonderful sweetness, and afterwards revels in joy: for he glories.
This is perfect love, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth, and he that receiveth it never loses, he lives sweetly, Secure in death.
