by Henri Vangeon (1875 - 1944), as Henri Ghéon

Présentation
Language: French (Français) 
Le lys entré dans l'averse blanc
n'en sortira pas plus blanc
Ainsi la Vierge traverse
la cascade aux eaux d'argent.
Sur ses paumes rafraîchies,
elle offrira la primeur
du jardin de modestie
à son Epoux et Seigneur.
Le vieillard qui la salue
renonce à vivre à la vue
du Fils attendu longtemps,
s'endormant dans son rêve,
montre à la mère le glaive
qui fauchera ce printemps.
Lumen ad revelationem gentium.
