A CROWN OF SONNETS II

Because the Son has made the Father known
I love the Father; while that Name of grace
Draws out my love so also does the place
That He has given Christ upon His throne.
I love the Father who could not condone
- So in the Son has acted to efface -
My sins.  I love the Father as I trace
His purposes, through which I am His own.

The attributes He chooses to evince
Or all the counsel to attain His ends
No human intuition apprehends.
I feel I need another at my side
As helper: so I love the Father since
The Father sent the Spirit as my Guide.
