Thomas Aquinas “Adoro Te Devote” (pg 90) Latin translated by Victorian Jesuit Gerard Manley Hopkins SJ
The faculty of hearing serves us, we have heard the Truth from Christ himself. In terms of sight and being blind 2 ways
Incarnation, the God man real, objective, individual did touch and hear God.
Greater awareness through abstraction than through senses. TA pondering of Eucharistic species profound grace filled understanding, read Aristotle, immediate awareness of nature, offer to us a way we can engage with accident and essence.
Open eyes to that
Hume, couldn’t measure it, not real. If tree falls does it make a sound? Trust vaguely what they could see touch smell
Pascal “The heart has its reasons which reason knows nothing of.”
Faith seeking understanding.
Engage the poem with belief that something is there.
Drawing out of meaning goes beyond concrete meaning is a personal process. Human heart hears in its own pitch.
