I feel exactly as you wrote in the introduction, as he quoted it. First, how can we speak, when confronted with such sublimity? Second, how can we remain silent? Our hearts were made of stone, could we keep silent, when our hearts are this full of wonder.

Adoro te devote, latens Deitas,

Tibi se cor meum totum subjicit,
Quia te contemplans totum deficit.
