“Contemplation is a knowing that is in no wise,

For ever dwelling above the Reason.

Never can it sink down into the Reason,

And above it can the Reason never climb.

The shining forth of That which is in no wise is as a fair mirror.

Wherein shines the Eternal Light of God.

It has no attributes,

And here all the works of Reason fail.

It is not God,

But it is the Light whereby we see Him.
