One went to the door of the Beloved and knocked.
A voice answered, "who is there?"
He answered, 'it is I'
The voice said, "there's no room for me and thee."
The door was shut.
After a year of solitude and deprivation
the man returned to the door of the Beloved.
He knocked.
A voice from within asked, "who is there?'
The man said, 'it is Thou.'
The door was opened for him.
