Chapter 233: The Theological Virtues

As we gaze upon, and so shall we see,

It is our minds which alters the state,

From whence such curiosity emanates, 

As we see, so we painstakingly believe.

It is the interpretation of our senses

Which penetrates the imagination,

It is what we command to see, we accept,

It is within that we shall find the truth.

Faith is a blind state of dependence,

From which trust regarded the agent,

It is a virtue of boldness, of courage,

It is from whose account we must dream.

Love! O such a tragic word,

To be used, to be savored, to be indulged

As it is appointed in time, 

Love is just a tragic belief.

Hope, then becomes eternal

It is such a sweet word 

That love hasn't seen

It is the bridge from within.

No amount of wall shall separate

The love from the beloved

From a low state to highest regard

That is the beauty of faith.

Onward shall we see!

A beautiful song from within

As it is written by many poets

Love can poison the giver.

As we near, as we end,

No virtue shall dwell, eternally,

Nothing shall be kept

In silence, in the freedom, in Grace.
