DE PROFUNDIS by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: I HEED IT ALL; NO MORE
Last Line: E'EN ALL THAT GOD COULD TELL.
Subject(s): MARY. MOTHER OF JESUS; WOMEN - BIBLE; VIRGIN MARY;
I heed it all; no more
Than to my listening heart,
Were millions on the shore,
Couldst thou, O Sea, impart.

So, long in silence sealed,
The Word Ineffable
To Mary's heart revealed
E'en all that God could tell.
