Dante Gabriel Rossetti - For A Marriage Of St. Catherine By Hans Memmelinck

2014-11-10 1 Dailymotion

(In the Hospital of St. John at Bruges) <br />MYSTERY: Catherine the bride of Christ. <br />She kneels, and on her hand the holy Child <br />Now sets the ring. Her life is hushed and mild, <br />Laid in God's knowledge—ever unenticed <br />From God, and in the end thus fitly priced. <br />Awe, and the music that is near her, wrought <br />Of angels, have possessed her eyes in thought: <br />Her utter joy is hers, and hath sufficed. <br />There is a pause while Mary Virgin turns <br />The leaf, and reads. With eyes on the spread book, <br />That damsel at her knees reads after her. <br />John whom He loved, and John His harbinger, <br />Listen and watch. Whereon soe'er thou look, <br />The light is starred in gems and the gold burns.<br /><br />Dante Gabriel Rossetti<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/for-a-marriage-of-st-catherine-by-hans-memmelinck/
