“Prologue”

“In darkness and in concealment, My house being
    now at rest.
In the happy night, In secret,
     when none saw me,
Not I beheld aught,
Without light or guide, save that
    which burned in my heart.
This light guided me
More surely than the light of
    noonday,
To the place where he ( well I knew who!) was awaiting me –
 A place where none appeared.” 

                                                           St. John of the Cross
