Question
the beauty of the earth,
the beauty of the sea,
the beauty of the wide air
around you,
the beauty of the sky;
question the order of the
stars,
the sun whose brightness
lights the day,
the moon whose splendour
softens the gloom of night;
question the living creatures
that move in the waters,
that roam upon the earth,
that fly through the air;
the sirit that lies hidden,
the matter that is manifest;
the visible things that are
ruled,
the invisible that rule them,
question all these.
They will answer you:
'Behold and see, we are beautiful.'
Who made these beautiful
changing things,
if not One who is beautiful
and changeth not?
From the Poem, Saint Augustine
by Joseph Mary
Plunkett (1887-1916)
