O’ Governing Light!
O’ Governing Fire!
White Fire!
The Governing Love,
Beyond passions
That poets use to sprout wings and fly,
Beyond happenstances,
That lovers use to breach the peace!
Love that governs,
Love the ministers,
Love that guides.
Tis’ sweet beyond
The drunken ribald
Of minstrels such as I!
