On the Priesthood by St. Norbert


Oh, Priest! who are you?
Not through yourself,
since you are from nothing.
Not for yourself,
since you are mediator of men,
Not to yourself,
since you are the spouse of the Church,
Not yours, since you are servant of all,
Not you, since you are God.
Who are you then? You are nothing, and all."
