For Marques

Thus I come my Beloved

& in all abasement

Beseech you – put to your hand

The imposition – a curb

To those flatterers

Who are the enemies of our love.

For our Blessedness is driven

& tossed by the waves

So that the depths of the sea

Press on us with infinite perils.

The living fountain

Springing up into

Eternal life

& love by its nature-

Dutiful and obedient to its object.
