Beata Beatrix

all’Ideale che non ha tramonti, / alla Bellezza che non sa dolori!

[muchadoabout]

I breathe the sweet breath which comes forth from thy mouth. I behold thy beauty every day.  It is my desire that I may be rejuvenated  with life through love of thee. Give me thy hands, holding thy spirit, that I may receive it and may live by it. Call thou upon my name unto eternity, and it shall never fail.
