(T)he very cause of the universe…is, as it were,
beguiled by goodness, by love and by yearning
and is enticed away from his dwelling place and
comes to abide with all things.
(The Divine Names, by the 6th century mystic Dionysius;
See “Dionysius the Areopagite” by Brendan Comerford SJ,
‘ Sacred Heart Messenger’, Dec 2013, p. 37)
