Summary/Abstract: Our study emphasizes the poetic "transcription" of the spiritual itinerary of the union of the soul with God, through the successive passage of the three stages of the mystical life: the way of purification, the way of enlightenment and the way of union,being about "the marriage"with God in the ecstasy of love, the metaphor on which the poem is based and which Saint John of the Cross highlights in the Song of Songs.
