Unto the Fountain of the World, and yearn
Whole-heartedly to be made one therewith,
A light before my spirit would appear—
With gentle warmth and radiancy aglow;
This then transformed itself into a man
Who looked into my face with tender eyes,
And spoke to me. These were the vision’s words:
‘Human delusion left thee once forlorn,
And now thou art upborne by human love;
Wait therefore until longing finds a way
