The Sealed Fountain
A garden shut up, a well sealed in the middle of it, and the water of life rising through the seal without breaking it. Scroll to watch it.
A garden shut up is my sister, my bride: a garden shut up, a fountain sealed.
Song of Songs 4:12, as St Jerome gives it
Mary is “a garden enclosed…a fountain sealed,” and from that fountain flows, according to Joel, the river which waters the torrent bed either of cords or of thorns
Jerome, Letters XLVIII
