"The Love of God, unknowable, but perfect,
Answers to an asking soul
As light emblazons a brightening surface.

Patient in the fire, we are vessels newly found
The hollow life we cease to own
Is graced and lucid, poured from Her hand.

When our love turns overflowing, but is one
The more of Love our image shows,
Being mirrors that reflect each other and the sun."

After Dante Alighieri
The Divine Comedy
Purgatorio Canto XV. Lines 67-75

"There is only one perfect prayer.
What is that?
- Thy Will be done."
