"Thou, for whose love I've sacrifice existence, Art, yet art not, the sum of earth's existence, Earth lacks true Being, yet depends thereon— Thou art true Being, Thou art pure existence The Loved One is quite colourless, O heart, Be not engrossed with colours, then, O heart All colours come from what is colourless, And 'who can dye so well as God,' O heart?"
