Es Cubells (Ibiza), 13 September, 1863
To Juana Gratias in Ciudadela

His foundational work is the content of the letter. He has already drawn up the Rules during his spiritual exercises in Vedra. The active and contemplative life have to be blended together. The active will be concretized in works of charity…the most remarkable of which is teaching and care for the sick. They will be organized. After them, the contemplative life will follow by itself. Palau is an excellent searcher of the signs of the time and a magnificent organizer.
