A Spiritual Canticle of the Soul and the Bridegroom Christ | Free Book
Saint John of the Cross
In the Spiritual Canticle St. John of the Cross tries to explain the
mystical process that follows the soul until it reaches its union with
God. In order to get this, the poet uses an allegory: the search of
the husband (Christ) by the wife (the human soul). The wife feels
itself wounded by love, and this makes it to start the search of the
Beloved (el Amado); the soul asks everywhere for him in despair until
they finally get together in the solitude of the garden (Paradise).
