Three-Fold Wisdom

Celtic Christian three-fold wisdom for this time in February:

“Three slender things that best support the world:
the slender stream of milk from a cow’s udder into the pail;
the slender blade of green corn upon the earth;
the slender thread in the hand of a skilled person.

Three sounds of increase:
the lowing of a cow;
the pound of a hammer;
the swish of a plow.

The three lights that illumine every darkness:
truth; nature; knowledge.”
