From: "Martin J. Walker" <[log in to unmask]>
> What a great Gnostic song, Candice
Martin,
To lock the focus, the most obviously Gnostic bit of Emmylou's "The Pearl"
would be:
Like falling stars from the universe, we are hurled
Down through the long loneliness of the world
Until we behold the pain become the pearl (the pearl,
the pearl)
-- but I'd agree: that's +so+ close, it's difficult to see it as coming
from anywhere +but+ a Gnostic context.
