The best Books: rankings · Page 3

1 I live without living in myself, / and I hope for so high a life / that I die because I do not die.
2 Let nothing disturb you, / let nothing frighten you, / all things pass, / God does not change; / patience obtains all things… / God alone suffices.
3 One dark night, / fired with love's urgent longings, / oh, happy chance!, / I went out unseen, / my house being now all stilled.
