"And I have felt

A presence that disturbs me with joy

Of elevated thoughts; a sense sublime

Of something far more deeply interfused,

Whose dwellings is the light of setting suns,

And the round ocean and the living air,

And the blue sky, and in the mind of man:

A motion and a spirit, that impels all thinking things, all objects of all thoughts,

And roll through all things.

Wordsworth     Tintern Abbey

I have reached the inner vision

and through Thy spirit in me

I have heard thy wondrous secret.

Through Thy mystic insight

Thou hast caused a spring of knowledge

To will up within me,

A fountain of power, pouring forth living waters

A flood of love and of all embracing wisdom

Like the splendour of Eternal Light

The Book of Hymns from the Dead Sea Scroll

In Thy wind – in Thy light-

How insignificant is everything else, how small are we – and how happy in that which alone is  great."
