Disciples Of The Div Group

Hello All,

I just wanted to say what a wonderful and encouraging experience it was to partake and share with everyone in this month's meeting. Thank you to all who were there, and thank you Ryan & Oliver for organizing and facilitating it. Hailing from afar, it's such a blessing to get to connect with like-minded followers of the Divine Logos. I have familial roots in England, Ireland and Wales, and studied British Literature & History for a year at the University of London once upon a time.

I have long been enamored with so much from that part of the world; of countries with cultures as rich as Rome and more. From Elgar to Wren to Swift, Milton and more, an undeniable, textural richness teems beneath your shores. My verbosity aside (always a challenge, haha), I wanted to share something that has long come to mind when pondering the enchanting Christendom of that part of the world (in particular near your neck of the woods, Oliver, if I'm not mistaken).

"Originally written in Anglo-Saxon, it's a poem about the creation of the world by an illiterate farmhand named Caedmon who worked for the monastery of Whitby in northern England. The story told is that Caedmon was given the gift of song by a mysterious figure who visited him in a dream." - J Leeming

Caedmon's Hymn

"Now let us praise Heaven-Kingdom's Guardian,

the Maker's might and his mind-plans,

the work of the Glory-Father—when he of wonders every one,

Eternal Lord, the beginning established.

He first shaped for men's sons

Heaven as a roof, the holy Creator;

then middle-earth mankind's Guardian,

eternal Lord, afterwards made--

for men the earth, Master almighty."

Wished Blessings & Light from Americana,

Christopher
