The glory of the One who moves all things
permeates the universe
and glows in one part more
and in another less.
I was within the heaven
that receives more or His light:
and I saw things that he
who from that height descends,
forgets or can not speak;
For nearing its desired end,
our intellect sinks
into an abyss
so deep
that memory
fails to follow.
The Divine Comedy, Paradiso Canto I:1-9>
