The word is not even on my tongue, Yahweh, before you know all about it ... Such knowledge is beyond my understanding ... a height to which my mind cannot attain ... For all these mysteries I thank you: for the wonder of myself, for the wonder of your works. (Zum Anzeigen anklicken. Warnung: Enthält möglicherweise Spoiler.) | |
