May the Lord, source of all life, not deny me this water so sweet and so precious, that he, in the exuberance of his love to men who promised her thirst. I, my father, I long for this water, it is ask Jesus to lamentations and groans continued. Have you also that I do not hide it, say, father, he knows the great need I have of this water, which alone can heal a wounded soul of love.
Comfort the most tender husband of the Song of Songs to a soul which thirsts for it, and to comfort her with that same kiss the sacred wife asked. Tell that to a soul that has not even received the kiss, can never sign a pact with him in these terms: "I'm all for my beloved and my beloved is everything to me."
May the Lord not to leave only one who has put their trust in him!Oh, my hope that this will never not be disappointed, and I will always be faithful ...
(October 10, 1915, Father Augustine of San Marco in Lamis - Letters. I, p. 666)
