(6) -- `In the moment, as it were, of the final so-near-to-identity of Himself and His wooden Image, He spoke. He said: "It is finished." It is at that moment that Easter began. It is not yet Easter; the Deposition has not yet taken place. He speaks,while yet He can, while He is not yet as speech- less as the wood, and He announces the culmination of that experience. Life has known absolutely all its own contradition. He survives; He perfectly survives. His--I dare not call it victory--is not afterwards, but then. His actual death become almost a part of His Resurrection, almost what Patmore called the death of the Divine Mother,a "ceremony." Not so,for the ceremony was itself a work and discovery, but then proper ceremonies are so; they achieve, as this does. The joy of His self-renewed knowledge perfectly exists, and His Resurrection is (in His Father and Origin) at His own decision and by His own will. It is the will of His unalterable joy which, having absorbed, exists.' (174) `In so far as we desire to bless, we are at least believers in a state of salvation now.' (176): from Charles Williams.
