How God draweth the Soul to Himself.

Project Gutenberg EPUB edition Mechthild, of Magdeburg and Bevan, Frances
Open passage
For He strikes the chords of the heavenly lyre,
Open passage
And sorrow and sadness turn and flee,
Open passage
And the earthly love, and the earth’s desire,
Open passage
In that music sweet depart from me.”
