To have enjoy'd the sun,
To have lived light in the spring,
To have loved, to have thought, to have done...

PASSOVER
The doors of life are two;
And, on some midnight still,
The Lord shall pass your way, and do
According to your will.
For, lo, if your desire
Be set upon the hearth,
There He will kindle you a fire,
Pleasant and of the earth;
And you shall take delight
For ever in that flame,
But not again shall come a night
When He will call your name.
Or, if you count it sin
That darkness wrap His shrine,
His breath shall light instead therein
The spark that is divine;
No shelter from the cold,
No ease it shall afford --
But by that gleam you shall behold
The glory of the Lord.
Now choose you!... nor forget,
Choosing this last alone,
The blood upon your lintel set
For sign, must be your own.
~V. H. Friedlaender
