SUMMARY:Vigils Reading - St Bonaventure
DESCRIPTION:THE FOUNTAIN OF LIFE \nFrom “The Tree of Life” by St Bonaventure \n◊◊◊ \nYou\, soul devoted to God\, whoever you are\, run with living desire to this \nFountain of life and light and with the innermost power of your heart cry out to \nhim: “O inaccessible beauty of the most high God and the pure brightness of \nthe eternal light\, life vivifying all life\, light illumining every light\, and keeping \nin perpetual splendour a thousand times a thousand lights brilliantly shining \nbefore the throne of your Divinity since the primeval dawn! O eternal and \ninaccessible\, clear and sweet stream from the fountain hidden from the eyes of \nall mortals\, whose depth is without bottom\, whose height is without limit\, \nwhose breadth cannot be bounded\, whose purity cannot be disturbed.“ \nFrom this Fountain flows the stream of the oil of gladness\, which \ngladdens the city of God\, and the powerful fiery torrent\, the torrent\, I say\, of the \npleasure of God\, from which the guests at the heavenly banquet drink to joyful \ninebriation and sing without ceasing hymns of jubilation. \nAnoint us with this sacred oil and refresh with the longed-for waters of \nthis torrent the thirsting throat of our parched hearts so that amid shouts of joy \nand thanksgiving we may sing to you a canticle of praise\, proving by experience \nthat with you is the fountain of life\, and in your light we will see light… \nBelieving\, hoping and loving with my whole heart\, with my whole mind \nand with my whole strength\, may I be carried to you\, beloved Jesus\, as to the \ngoal of all things\, because you alone are sufficient\, you alone are good and \npleasing to those who seek you and love your name. “For you\, my good Jesus\, \nare the redeemer of the lost\, the Saviour of the redeemed\, the hope of exiles\, the \nstrength of laborers\, the sweet solace of anguished spirits\, the crown and \nimperial dignity of the triumphant\, the unique reward and joy of all the \ncitizens of heaven\, the renowned offspring of the supreme God and the sublime \nfruit of the virginal womb\, the abundant fountain of all graces\, of whose \nfullness we have all received.“
