Spiritual Canticle of The Soul and The Bridegroom
“Tempter! should I escape thy flame,
Thou wilt have helped my soul from Death:”
The Dark Angel (1895)
Context: p>I fight thee, in the Holy Name!
Yet, what thou dost, is what God saith:
Tempter! should I escape thy flame,
Thou wilt have helped my soul from Death:The second Death, that never dies,
That cannot die, when time is dead:
Live Death, wherein the lost soul cries,
Eternally uncomforted.</p
