Rumi ...
There is a Water that flows down from Heaven
To cleanse the world of sin by grace Divine
At last
Its whole stock spent
Its virtue gone
Dark with pollution
Not its own
It speeds back to the Fountain of all purities
Whence
Freshly bathed
Earthward it sweeps again
Trailing a robe of glory bright and pure
This Water is the Spirit of the Saints
Which ever sheds
Until itself is beggared
God's balm on the sick soul
And then returns
To Him Who made the purest light of Heaven
