[...] take thee but a little word of
one syllable: for so it is better than
of two, [...]
This word shall be thy shield and
thy spear, whether thou ridest on
peace or on war. With this word,
thou shalt beat on this cloud and this
darkness above thee. With this word,
thou shall smite down all manner of
thought under the cloud of forgetting.
Underhill, Evelyn, The Cloud of Unknowing, 2nd Edition, London: John M. Watkins,1922, pp. 93-94.
