The Call of the Divine Beloved

Perfect and inspiring.

This is an utterly beautiful volume of spiritual poetry, including the deeply moving epic work “The Seven Valleys” which portrays the progress of the soul as a journey through the eponymous seven valleys.

I have read several of these poems many times before, often swiftly, enjoying the narrative, imagery and moral points. Other times I have read it slowly, contemplating each verse in depth. This time I worked my way through by reading a verse each morning and evening. If a text can withstand all these methods of consumption and still move and inspire each and every time the book is opened... I know of no way of expressing the extent of this book's perfection.
