lirik lagu ghizela rowe - thomas traherne - in making bodies love could not express

Loading...

in making bodies love could not express
itself, or art, unless it made them less
o what a monster had in man been seen
had every thumb or toe a mountain been!
what worlds must he devour when he did eat?
what oceans drink! yet could not all his meat
or stature, make him like an angel shine ;
or make his soul in glory more divine
a soul it is that makes us truly great
whose little bodies make us more complete
an understanding that is infinite
an endless, widе, and everlasting sight
that can enjoy all things and nought еxclude
is the most sacred greatness may be viewed
’twas inconvenient that his bulk should be
an endless hill ; he nothing then could see:
no figure have, no motion, beauty, place
no colour, feature, member, light, or grace
a body like a mountain is but cumber
an endless body is but idle lumber:
it spoils converse, and time itself devours
while meat in vain, in feeding idle powers;
excessive bulk being most injurious found
to those conveniences which men have crowned:
his wisdom did his power here repress
god made man greater while he made him less
