Quotes by Hadewijch (?)

“For this is love's truth; she joins two in one being, makes sweet sour, strangers neighbors, and the lowly noble.”

“So that each knows the other through and through In the anguish or the repose or the madness of Love,
And eats his flesh and drinks his blood;
The heart of each devours the other's heart,
One soul assaults the other and invades it completely,
As he who is Love itself showed us
When he gave us himself to eat,
Disconcerting all the thoughts of man.”

“At that time I also had, for a short while, the strength to bear it. But all too soon I lost external sight of the shape of that beautiful man, and I saw him disappear to nothing, so quickly melting away and fusing together that I could not see or observe him outside of me, nor discern him within me. It was to me at that moment as if we were one without distinction.”
