Flows without ebb, and undiminished pours!

Who from Thyself derivest, underived!

And in Thyself hast ever lived!

Who, when revealed the most, then most art hid!

Thou, if the soul has breathed one true desire

To see Thy light, wilt give it wings for heaven.

To mount a phœnix at Thy beam revived!

Since nought there is beside Thee, in Thyself

And of Thyself sole blest! since only Thou

Conferrest good, and to receive must give.
