Platt, Jr., [1926]\nFantastic and not in harmony with the other Odes. The reference to a painless Virgin Birth is notable.\n1 A cup of milk was offered to me: and I drank it in the sweetness of the delight of the Lord.\n 2 The Son is the cup, and He who was milked is the Father:\n 3 And the Holy Spirit milked Him: because His breasts were full, and it was necessary for Him that His milk should be sufficiently released;\n 4 And the Holy Spirit opened His bosom and mingled the milk from the two breasts of the Father; and gave the mixture to the world without their knowing:\n 5 And they who receive in its fulness are the ones on the right hand.\n 6 The Spirit opened the womb of the Virgin and she received conception and brought forth; and the Virgin became a Mother with many mercies;\n 7 And she travailed and brought forth a Son, without incurring pain;\n 8 And because she was not sufficiently prepared, and she had not sought a midwife (for He brought her to bear) she brought forth, as if she were a man, of her own will;\n 9 And she brought Him forth openly, and acquired Him with great dignity,\n 10 And loved Him in His swaddling clothes and guarded Him kindly, and showed Him in Majesty. Hallelujah.","title":"The Forgotten Books of Eden: The Odes of Solomon: Ode 19","type":"page"}
