Ana de San Bartolomé, in her text Defense of the Teresian

Legacy (Defensa de la herencia teresiana), dated by Urkiza to 1621, offers her own spin on the recently-deceased Ana de Jesús:

…it seems they want to make more of [her] than our Holy Mother, and this I cannot endure, since she is far from deserving canonization…Mother Ana [de Jesús] was not with the Saint but two or three months in Salamanca and after some years she [the saint] carried her to a new foundation at Veas and left her there, so that they never saw each other again. And through letters our Holy Mother commanded her to go to Granada…and well I know that she was unhappy with how Ana did things there…and what is least to the credit of Mother Ana is that in her life she wanted to be head of everything, and this is not high praise for a subordinate. 19
