PERPETUAL LIGHT "Ah, do not turn to me that face which is no longer of this world!… There are enough angels to serve the mass in Heaven! Have pity on me, who am only a man without wings, who rejoiced in this companion God had given me, and that I should hear her sigh with her head resting on my shoulder!… the bitterness like the bitterness of myrrh… And for you age is already come. But how hard it is to renounce when the heart is young!" "THE TIDINGS BROUGHT TO MARY"
