 * His writings were first published in 1618 by Diego de Salablanca. The numerical divisions in the work were introduced by Salablanca. This edition does not contain the Spiritual Canticle however, and also omits or adapts certain passages, perhaps for fear of falling foul of the Inquisition.
 * The Spiritual Canticle was first included in the 1630 edition, produced by Fray Jeronimo de San José, at Madrid. This edition was largely followed by later editors.
 * The first Castilian edition in 1627 in Brussels.
