Hildegard von Bingen, "O Virtus Sapientia"


O virtue sapientia!
Thou have turned turning
while thou are comprehending everything
in once which has life.
Thou have three wings:
One of them is directing to the high,
the second down to the earth,
and the third anywhere.
Praise to Thee
that is worth of Thee, alas sapientia!
