The Ancient Mariner

 Part VI


First Voice

' But tell me, tell me !  speak again,

    Thy soft response renewing --

What makes that ship drive on so fast ?

    What is the Ocean doing ? '


Second Voice

Still as a slave before his lord,

   The Ocean has no blast ;

The great bright eye most silently

   Up to the Moon is cast --


If he may know which way to go ;

   For she guides him in smooth or grim.

See, brother, see ! how graciously

   She looked down on him.


. . .

. . .


Do as you have said.

Il Puro ha udito il musico susurro de le vergini stelle e ne li abissi cerca se stesso solamente e ha fissi occhi d'amore ne l'immenso azzurro.

Luke III

 

Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able  of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

Alfred Lord Tennyson


 Little flower,

but if I could understand

what you are,

root and all in all,

I should know

what GOD and man IS.

Prayer

 

Heavenly King,

console the Spirit of Truth

. . .

present in all places ...

and filling all things ...

the treasurer of blessings

and giver of life...

Come,

cleanse us of all sins

dwell in us and

save our souls.


Oh Good One

Mighty One

Amen
