"These carols and "sacred letters" prove, against the widespread idea that Sor Juana wrote little religious poetry, how themes of this nature were not only not entirely alien to her... In addition to the carols, which are certainly hers, in this volume brings together a large number of others that could be supposed to come from her pen."
