What happens to the drop of wine
That you pour into the sea?
Does it remain itself, unchanged?

It is no longer master of itself.
The soul wills and yet does not will:

It no longer seeks to possess, as was its wont
It lacks the strength to possess such sweetness.

Is founded on nichil,
Shaped nothingness, made one with the Lord. — Jacopone Da Todi
