    Hail, Source of Being! Universal Soul
    Of heaven and earth! Essential Presence, hail!

    Hast the great whole into perfection
    touched.

    Is full of weeds, her fairest flowers choked up,
    Her fruit-trees all unpruned, her hedges ruined,
    Her knots disordered, and her wholesome herbs
    Swarming with caterpillars.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
