The Mystical Order of the White Rose

With these outflowings, river-like, with deltas

that spread like arms to reach the open sea,

with the recurrent tides that never cease

will I acknowledge you, will I proclaim you

as no one ever has before.

— Rainer Maria Rilke from the poem Dedication translated by Albert Ernest Flemming
