In the same year four sisters of Christ were apprehended
at Ghent, namely, Pierijntgen Ketels, with
Leentgen her mother, and two sisters, Pierijntgen
and Marijntgen van Male. These did not counsel
with flesh and blood, but with God, who was able
to strengthen them, for whose name they, after
many assaults and unwavering steadfastness, had to
lay down their lives in the monastery of St. Peter,
without the city of Ghent. Therefore they shall be
crowned by the Young Man upon Mount Sion, and
be joyfully received by their bridegroom. 2 Esdras
2:46; Matt. 25:10.
