Wisdom invites you, that you may eat with your Spirit.
Lo, the new wine has been broached ; lo, the cups have been brought in.

Drink what you shall drink, gladness surrounding you.

Eat that you may eat, glad in your Spirit.

The Bride is the Church, the Bridegroom is Christ.
The Bride is the soul, the Bridegroom is Jesus.

Rejoice, and know you are the sons of the Light.

This is the true joy that will endure with us!

Here is words of wisdom, hear :
He that humbleth himself shall be received,
he that exalteth himself in self-glory, shall be humbled.

He that dies lives, he that labours has his rest.
After the labour is the rest, after sorrow there is joy again.
Let us rejoice in this joy from the aeons of aeons.
Glory and honour to Jesus, the Majesty of the holy ones,
and his holy Elect, and the soul of our Church, the Blessed Mary.
