In the passionate poetry of a bride to her bridegroom, Mechthild of Magdeburg (1260-1292/94) yearns for the unity of her heart with the heart of God. As she seeks mystical union, Mechthild depicts her struggle with Lucifer, who seeks constantly to disrupt her relationship with God. Mechthild borrows luminous imagery from the Song of Songs to express her constant longing to be in God's heart. The selections in this edition offer a powerful glimpse into Mechthild's vision of God.
