My glory veils and shadows for behoof
Of all His creatures, His great Deity;
Whereof ye are partakers, though aloof
It dwells from you, ye in its light doth dwell,
Sun of the soul—a pattern and a proof.
The Father sitteth inaccessible
To eye or ear. In me His plenitude
Abides—His only Son for whom ye will,
Rays of that Radiance wherein may be viewed
His glory only. I His brightness am,
