Summary "De complete werken van Joost van Vondel. Op de Aankomste van de Koninginne van ’t Zuiden te Hierusalem" is a collection of Dutch poetry written in the early 17th century. The work is rich with religious and moral themes, reflecting on the arrival of a queen, which serves as a metaphor for divine light and wisdom. It is likely a prominent cultural and literary piece that explores human nature, spirituality, and the complexities of kingship. The opening of this work provides a glimpse into the poetic style and depth of Vondel's writing. It begins with an elaborate reflection on the beauty of a queen arriving, drawing contrasts between earthly splendour and divine grace. The lines express both awe and introspection, hinting at themes of mortality and virtue, as the speaker contemplates the transient nature of power and the ultimate quest for redemption. Vondel’s use of vivid imagery and metaphor sets a solemn tone that invites readers to ponder deeper spiritual truths and the moral implications of worldly pursuits.
