“In a word, frankly, I am in love with the love in my Spouse.”
John of St. Samson (1571–1636)
From The Epithalamium
“I am the spouse. She took her necklace off
And laid it in the sand. As I am, I am
The spouse.”
Notes Toward a Supreme Fiction (1942), It Must Change
Context: I am the spouse. She took her necklace off
And laid it in the sand. As I am, I am
The spouse. She opened her stone-studded belt. I am the spouse, divested of bright gold,
The spouse beyond emerald or amethyst,
Beyond the burning body that I bear. I am the woman stripped more nakedly
Than nakedness, standing before an inflexible
Order, saying I am the contemplated spouse.
