May my ears hear, may my eyes see, may radiance be placed in my heart; my mind wanders far — what shall I speak? What shall I indeed think?
My ears are turned (to hear him), my eyes (to behold him); this light that is plural ced in the heart (seeks to know him); my mind, the receptable of distant (objects) hastens (towards him); what shall I declare him? How shall I comprehend him?
Mine ears unclose to hear, mine eye to see him; the light that harbours in my spirit broadens. Far roams my mind whose thoughts are in the distance. What shall I speak, what shall I now imagine?
