Ode XXXIV


There is no hard road where the heart is simple, nor wound in upright thoughts.


1.

There is no hard road where the heart is simple,
nor wound in upright thoughts.


2.

Nor storm in the depth of a luminous thought.


3.

Where beauty surrounds on every side,
there is nothing divided in it.


4.

The likeness of that which is below
is that which is above.


5.

For everything is above, and below is nothing,
but it is supposed so by those who have no knowledge.


6.

Grace has been revealed for your salvation.
Believe and live and be saved.
Hallelujah.
