Like as the hart desireth the waterbrooks so longeth my soul after thee, O God. My soul is athirst for God, yea, even for the living God when shall I come to appear before the presence of God? My tears have been my meat day and night while they daily say unto me, Where is now thy God? — Ps. 42:1-3

For the flowers are great blessings. For the flowers have their angels, Even the words of God's creation. For the flower glorifies God And the root parries the adversary. For there is a language of flowers. For the flowers are peculiarly The poetry of Christ.
