TAKING REFUGE IN THE LORD


Let us take refuge in the Lord,
And ascend a little to the place
Where thoughts dry up
And stirrings vanish,
Where memories fade away
And the passions die,
Where human nature becomes serene
And is transformed
As it stands in the other world.

--St. Isaac of Nineveh
The Second Part. Ch. 10, 28.
