84.) As Sweet Nectar Comes From Flowers . . .

As sweet nectar comes from flowers

And fruit from trees

So is the way of their production of it

The same as for me:

In the forming of the written treasure

All the work which was necessary to do

Was to not think;

And what kind of work was that

But what all nature does continually:

For in all that the trees do

And in all that the flowers say

They need not to think either

It is as all done for them in them

As it is for me in me

And throughout all the varied stages

Of productivity it is the same.

                              *

The life that makes the trees and flowers

Live – makes them produce

What they were made to produce,

And with no thought needed of their own:

So what is in us is in us, and it is what comes out.
