The heart is worn away only when
The heart turns back in repentance only when
through remembering Him, it beholds nothing other than Him;
in remembering him, it beholds nothing besides him.

then, when it beholds the wonders in Him,
So if it beholds wonders in him,
it has no penitential turning to make within its love for Him.
it is not repentant in its love.
