Hildegard von Bingen, Sequence for the Holy Spirit

O mighty course that runs within and through
the all—up in the heights, upon the earth,
and in the every depth—
you bind and gather all together.

From you the clouds flow forth, the wind takes flight,
the stones their moisture hold,
the waters rivers spring,
and earth viridity exudes.

-Hildegard von Bingen, Sequence for the Holy Spirit, excerpt, translation by Nathaniel M. Campbell
