Originally, this song symbolized for me many things. Not only his intolerance of the modern world, but the questionable methods of a former faith. ("gilled Jesus on a fisherman's hook") It's hard for me to put my finger on who he was seeing in the garden. Perhaps a woman, or perhaps the light he was looking for. The song is a beautiful ending to a mournful album. I belive that it clearly explains how he hasn't found his answer yet. ("As I search, in and out, above, about, below"). One of my favorite tracks on "No More Shall We Part" Along with "The Sorrowful Wife".
