 *quently, you will find Jesus only after you have passed by all creatures. For my part, I have many a time repeated this verse of the Spiritual Canticle of St. John of the Cross:

Send me no more A messenger Who cannot tell me what I seek. All they who serve Relate a thousand graces of Thee; And all wound me more and more, And they leave me dying, ."

''Trans. D. Lewis, M. A.''
