From the Paper:

"In her poem "A Glowworm Scatters Flashes" Rosalia de Castro utilizes powerful and vivid imagery to depict the intensity of the private relationship between the persona and his Deity. Throughout the poem concrete images from architecture or building materials shattered in a thousand bits, lofty marble riches and Adam's clay are juxtaposed with the incorporeal nature of God, the chasms that the persona cannot see and the solitary vast vacuity."
