Identifier

Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
A description of the experience
Hadewijch – from Medieval writings on female spirituality
The madness of Love makes the strong weak
And the sick healthy
It makes the sturdy man a cripple
And heals him who was wounded
It instructs the ignorant person
About the broad Way
Whereon many inevitably lose themselves
It teaches him everything
That can be learned
In high Love’s school
