    When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; what is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

    in wonder.
    Cold, fresh, deep, I feel the word ‘water’
    spelled in my left palm.
