The Pricke of Conscience, also known as Stimulus Conscientiae, is a medieval poem written by Richard Rolle, a hermit and mystic from Northumbria, England. The poem is a religious work that explores the themes of sin, redemption, and the afterlife. It is written in Middle English and is divided into seven parts, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Christian theology. The poem begins with an examination of the nature of sin and its consequences, before moving on to discuss the nature of God and the importance of repentance. The later sections of the poem focus on the afterlife, including the Last Judgment, Heaven, and Hell. Throughout the poem, Rolle uses vivid imagery and allegory to convey his theological message, drawing on a range of sources including the Bible, classical literature, and contemporary theology.The Pricke of Conscience was a popular work in the Middle Ages, and was widely read and copied by both clergy and laypeople. It was particularly influential in the North of England, where Rolle lived and worked. The poem was also translated into several other languages, including Latin, French, and Dutch.Today, The Pricke of Conscience is considered an important work of medieval literature and theology, and is studied by scholars of both fields. It provides a valuable insight into the religious beliefs and practices of the Middle Ages, and offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of England's most enigmatic and influential writers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
