Christian prayers in feminine (15th century)

A breviary from the monastery of Sant Cugat del Vallès preserves among its folios five prayers in Catalan added later and drawn up from the feminine, probably at the beginning of the XV century. In them, the devout woman who owned the book is defined as "unworthy, petty and grave sinner", "full of sins", "desperate for Jesus Christ", and demands the help of Jesus Christ and the Virgin for her and her family at the time when his "soul is full of anguish" and in that of death.
