| BkII:16.II.3 | How nice it is to live in the freedom of true lovers, in the freedom of being able to love each other without interruption, living each moment as two lovers who look only at each other in an ecstasy of love. Beloved spouse of my divinity, you are the delight of my love. To be in your heart and have you in mine is the joy of my being. You are beauty made true. For me, you are a pure spouse, dressed in white, on whose waist I have put, a golden and ruby ??belt, a spouse crowned with roses and in whose hands I have placed the most beautiful bouquet of the delights of love. So we walk together wedded, not in the path of spiritual betrothal, but walking the path of the world and in all corners of the universe, and enjoying ourselves in our mutual company—in our presence, radiating joy and peace to everything created. We are the eternal union of peace. We are the beauty that has no beginning or end. We are the virgin and the beloved, holiness and love. We are the Christ of God and the beloved. We are a union whose beauty embellishes everything on which your gaze rests. |
