"I have not seen Thee, yet I tell Thy praise, Nor known Thee, yet I image forth Thy ways. For by Thy seers' and servants' mystic speech Thou didst Thy sov'ran splendour darkly teach, And from the grandeur of Thy work they drew The measure of Thy inner greatness, too. They told of Thee, but not as Thou must be, Since from Thy work they tried to body Thee. To countless visions did their pictures run, Behold through all the visions Thou art one."
