I, the fiery life of divine wisdom,
I ignite the beauty of the plains.
I sparkle the waters.
I burn in the sun,
and the moon,
and the stars.
With wisdom I order ALL rightly.
Above ALL I determine truth.
I ignite the beauty of the plains.
I sparkle the waters.
I burn in the sun,
and the moon,
and the stars.
With wisdom I order ALL rightly.
Above ALL I determine truth.
–Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179)
