medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Dear all, While transcribing a passage from the Life of St Eugene I came across the following passage: "And the whyche fader hath engendred hym without moder. And she in like wise conceyued hym wythoute knowlege of man. My God and my mayster hathe a wyfe, a vyrgyn, whyche engendreth a contynuell multytude of children. His flesshe is ioyned to the flesshe of his wife, a virgin, wythout lettyng thei kysse e<f.167vb>che other. They shal be euerlasting in loue. And soo are they so perfyte žat al virgynyte, al charyte and all oonlyness of body is there kepte." It sounds like a medieval religious poem I read somewhere, however, I can't remember where. Any suggestions or hints are welcome. best, sandra _________________________________ Sandra Lowerre, MA Ruhr-University of Bochum English Department GB Universitaetsstr. 150 44780 Bochum Germany Tel. ++49 234 32 22598 Fax. ++49 234 32 14746 ********************************************************************** To join the list, send the message: join medieval-religion YOUR NAME to: [log in to unmask] To send a message to the list, address it to: [log in to unmask] To leave the list, send the message: leave medieval-religion to: [log in to unmask] In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: [log in to unmask] For further information, visit our web site: http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/medieval-religion.html
