Q

Escrito está en mi alma vuestro gesto, y cuanto yo escribir de vos deseo; vos sola lo escribistes, yo lo leo tan solo que aun de vos me guardo en esto. En esto estoy y estaré siempre puesto; que aunque no cabe en mí cuanto en vos veo, de tanto bien lo que no entiendo creo, tomando ya la fe por presupuesto. Yo no nací sino para quereros; mi alma os ha cortado a su medida; por hábito del alma misma os quiero. Cuanto tengo confieso yo deberos; por vos nací, por vos tengo la vida, por vos he de morir y por vos muero.

A

Your gesture is written in my soul, and how much I want to write about you; you alone wrote it, I read it alone that even from you I keep myself in this. In this I am and I will always be; That although what I see in you does not fit in me, from so much good what I do not understand I believe, already taking faith for a presupposition. I was not born except to love you; my soul has cut you to its measure; by habit of the soul itself I love you. How much I have I confess I owe you; For you I was born, for you I have life, for you I have to die and for you I die.
