Manifold is His beauty, and vast is His creation. It baffles all description. Words cannot picture it adequately. Yet if words are inadequate, they are the only means at our disposal. God Himself is nameless, and the various names by which He is described were employed by the Master-souls: and though these can never do full justice to the subject which is indescribable, yet they give us some vague idea and stimulate us towards the Path.
Stanza XIX
Countless Thy names and countless Thy places; unapproachable and inaccessible Thy innumerable heavenly plateau; even by the word countless,1 we fail to describe Thee; by words we describe Thee and by words we praise Thee. By words, we acquire Divine knowledge, and in words are sung Thy hymns and attributes; it is words we employ in speech and in writing; in them is our fate ordained; but He who ordains is above such writ. As Thou ordaineth, so do we receive. Thou art immanent in all; and nothing is where Thy Word is not. What power have I to conceive of Thy wonderful nature? Too poor, am I, to make an offering of my life to Thee. Whatever pleaseth Thee is good; Thou art forevermore; oh Formless One !

Explanation: 1) The words count and countless are of little consequence for the Almighty. He who is immanent in everything and is the very life of the creation itself, knows every particle thereof.
