How they live in common. 9. Of the clothes. 10. Of the food. 11. Of mortification. 12. Of the care of the sick in the community. 13. Of the virtue of obedience. 14. Of the reverence in the things of God. 15. Of prayer and sacraments. 16. Of the confessors. 17. Of the sacristan. 18. Of the interactions with outsiders. 19. Of the relations with ecclesiastic authority. 20. Of the virtue of chastity. 21. Of silence. 22. Of the parlor. 23. Of correspondence. 24. Of the porter. Part B: 25. How those who desire to join the society are admitted. 26. Of the probation (postulancy and novitiate). 27. Of the profession. 28. Of the vows. 29. Of dismissal. 30. Of the care of the dead. 31. On what extent the present rule obligates. Part C: Constitutions. 1. The government of the society. Appendix: Prescriptions of the canon law concerning religious, which the Sisters of M.M.M. must always remember. Note: Each chapter would lay down the principles and the spirit, followed by practical applications or measures, which could be enumerated under numbers and make the articles of the Rule. I think it would be good to print at the front of the Rule the instructions.
