Render this text in authentic medieval blackletter calligraphy on aged parchment: O Sapientia by Malcolm Guite I cannot think unless I have been thought, Nor can I speak unless I have been spoken; I cannot teach except as I am taught, Or break the bread except as I am broken. O Mind behind the mind through which I seek, O Light within the light by which I see, O Word beneath the words with which I speak, O founding, unfound Wisdom, finding me, O sounding Song whose depth is sounding me, O Memory of time, reminding me, My Ground of Being, always grounding me, My Maker’s bounding line, defining me; Come, hidden Wisdom, come with all you bring, Come to me now, disguised as everything.
