Chris’s Reviews > The Writings of Julian of Norwich: A Vision Showed to a Devout Woman and A Revelation of Love > Status Update

"Rightfullehede hath two fair properties: it is right and it is fulle." A moment of Barth from Julian.

I adore Julian's English. "For the most fulhede of joy that we shall have, as to my sight, is this marvelous curtesy and homelyhede of oure fader that is oure maker, in oure lorde Jhesu Crist that is oure broder and oure savior." That last phrase is so elegant, I've heard it stolen uncited in prayers-- and darn right, because it's brilliant.
