"Beauty crowds me till I die beauty mercy have on me"
Simplified meaning
Sometimes, the overwhelming presence of beauty in the world can feel intense and almost overwhelming, making a person feel overwhelmed by it. For example, imagine standing in a field of blooming flowers with the sun setting in the background. The scene is so stunning that it almost takes your breath away and brings tears to your eyes. Similarly, a person might feel this way when experiencing art, music, or nature that is so beautiful it deeply moves them and becomes almost too much to bear. This powerful feeling makes someone wish for a little break to process the emotions that beauty brings. To apply this to life, it's important to take moments to fully appreciate and embrace these beautiful experiences, but also give yourself time to process and recover from the intense feelings they may create.
