This Soul, says Love, has six wings, 4 just as the Seraphim. She no longer wishes for anything which comes by an intermediary, for that is the proper state of being of the Seraphim; 5 there is no intermediary between their love and God’s love. Love is constantly made new in them6 without any intermediaries, and so too in this Soul, for she does not seek for knowledge of God among the teachers of this world, but by truly despising this world and herself. Ah, God, how great is the difference between the gift that a lover makes to his loved one through an intermediary, and the gift made directly to his loved one by a lover! ― Margaret Porette, The Mirror of Simple Souls
