More From Christina Rossetti

Ecclesiastes names thee almighty, the maccabees name thee creator, the epistle to the ephesians names thee liberty, baruch names thee immensity, the psalms name thee wisdom and truth, john names thee light, the book of kings names thee lord, exodus names thee providence, leviticus sanctity, esdras justice, creation names thee god, man names thee father; but solomon names thee compassion, which is the most beautiful of all thy names.

Lord! thou art with thy people still; they see thee in the night-watches, and their hearts burn within them as thou talkest with them by the way. and thou art near to those that have not known thee; open their eyes that they may see thee--see thee weeping over them, and saying, "ye will not come unto me that ye might have life"--see thee hanging on the cross and saying, "father, forgive them, for they know not what they do"--see thee as thou wilt come again in thy glory to judge them at the last. amen.

Let us open wide the windows of our hearts, that each family member may feel welcome and 'at home.' let us open also the doors of our very souls, that the dear ________ may enter. remember his promise: 'behold, i stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, i will come in to him' (revelation 3:20).

When god gives you a door, if you want access, you go through that door. people didn't like jesus. oh, they had all kind of reasons to hate him but jesus said, "i am the door. any man who enters must come by me. if you don't come by me," he said, "you're a thief and a robber." well, if omarosa manigault is the door to donald trump, well i kind of like that door. that's a pretty door. that's an intelligent door. that's a spiritually rooted door.

I see thee better in the dark, i do not need a light. the love of thee a prism be excelling violet. i see thee better for the years that hunch themselves between, the miner’s lamp sufficient be to nullify the mine. and in the grave i see thee best— its little panels be a-glow, all ruddy with the light i held so high for thee! what need of day to those whose dark hath so surpassing sun, it seem it be continually at the meridian?

Gaze not on beauty too much, lest it blast thee; nor too long, lest it blind thee; nor too near, lest it burn thee. if thou like it, it deceives thee; if thou love it, it disturbs thee; if thou hunt after it, it destroys thee. if virtue accompany it, it is the heart's paradise; if vice associate it, it is the soul's purgatory. it is the wise man's bonfire, and the fool's furnace.

Beautiful works do not intoxicate, but they enchant.

And keep you in the rear of your affection, out of the shot and danger of desire, the chariest maid is prodigal enough if she unmasks her beauty to the moon.

Nothing divine dies. all good is eternally reproductive. the beauty of nature re-forms itself in the mind, and not for barren contemplation, but for new creation.
