"Having served many, one after another, and with greater purity in every stage, she meets her last friend, in whom manliness has raised itself, and as the highest male principle returned to his Father, the last friend whom she can only serve by leaving: and she goes away, and lies down awaiting death."
L.E.J. Brouwer, "Life, Art, and Mysticism", VIII, tr. W.P. van Stigt
