Look at yourself, trembling, afraid of nonexistence:
Know that nonexistence
is also afraid
that God might bring it into existence.
If you grasp at worldly dignities,
it's from fear, too.
Everything, except love of the Most Beautiful,
is really agony. It's agony
to move towards death and not drink the water of life.
