SAINT AUGUSTINE IN THE SWEET

DISCOURSES original Latin: "Dulciloquia," a title used for collections of spiritual sayings or meditations attributed to Augustine., Book 2, Chapter 8.

Let the Light of Your Countenance be sealed upon us, O Lord: For
we are not the Light that illuminates every human being
coming into this world: But we are illuminated by You, so that we, who
were once Darkness, may be Light in You. Recognize, I
pray you, sons of men, THE ETERNAL INTERNAL This phrase refers to the "Inner Light" or the divine spark within the soul. In this context, it suggests that the "treasure" the alchemist seeks is found within the spirit as much as in the laboratory.,
and see and taste how sweet our Lord
is.
