His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.
He is the foremost among countless thousands, supreme above all others and wholly desirable in every trait. Seeing Him in that loveliness means the self must be hidden from view so that only He is seen. He is to be held fast as the powerful One who is able to save and sustain.

Life is to be lived united to Him and labor carried on in His strength, for the time of testing allowed to each person is brief at the longest.
