The miraculous wonder of eternal beauty is astonishing; it completely plundered me simply by showing me my own mirror.

What a playful yet profound revelation of divine love this is! The poet marvels at the enchanting craft of the 'Eternal Beauty', which needed no external spectacle to steal his heart—it simply held up the mirror of the seeker's own soul. By showing the lover the divine light shining within himself, God effortlessly dissolved his ego, leaving him wonderfully robbed of his separate self.
