Hi R. Sale,
Since you mentioned the ring and the cross yesterday You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. I'd like to congratulate you on your discovery.
Women were not allowed to preach since pope Innocent III. A predecessor of Colette, Marguerite Porete, also a mystic, wrote the famous Miroir des âmes simples which was translated to many languages. Her book was received with suspicion and hostility by the Church. It was banned by the Inquisition and burned (she was also judged and executed in 1310) but many copies survived and were widely circulated.
It is plausible, I guess, that a collection of prayers, that were not approved by the Church, was ciphered and disguised as a herbal/astronomical compendium.
Somehow, Edgar Allan Poe knew.
