Love, by what miracle dost open wide?

What glory from the wound doth he attain,

The wound that thou didst deal him in his side?

Whence from the loss thou sendest, comes the gain?

And whence the joyous life when thou hast died?

The soul that hath endured these at thine hand

The cause, but not the ways can understand.

ERASTRO.
