The Essential Mystics: Selections from the World's Great Wisdom Traditions, Edited by Andrew Harvey

Beauty is before me,
And beauty is behind me.
Above and below me hovers the beautiful.
I am surrounded by it.
I am immersed in it.
In my youth I am aware of it,
And in old age I shall walk quietly
The beautiful trail.
