NUNS
BATH
Dearest Florentina,
Baths should be taken for health
reasons and not to beautify the body. Use baths when infirmity demands
and not when the will urges, for she who does what is not necessary will
easily fall into sin: "Make no provision for the flesh. . ."
But anything done for the recovery of health is fine. So, take your
baths not as dictated by the pleasure of the flesh but for the cure of ill
health. This way, you will be far from sin.

Training of Nuns" Chap. 20
