Opis: Christus - White Grace Hoffman
Excerpt from Christus: A Story of Love<br><br>Canto the First<br><br>The brooding night yet held the silent land<br>In that deep stillness of the quiet stars<br>That lends itself to mystery and awe;<br>The early scent of honeyed flowers was near,<br>Rising in incense, filling thought with dreams:<br>Through the expectant air came consciousness<br>Of dawn, and tender things springing new born<br>From out the dark.<br>When lo! arose a star<br>Where in the East for long Wise Men had watched,<br>And cradled for this rising light old truths.<br>More luminous by far than all the rest<br>It hung, God's lamp, above a wayside inn,<br>A simple kahn, where lay at this high hour<br>The Christ, with beasts of toil, on lowly bed,<br>God's truth to earth new born as Virgin's child;<br>That as the pure in heart see God all gifts<br>Are theirs, e'en this the crown of Motherhood,<br>Granting to love a new and higher right.<br><br>Now o'er the earth on strains of music comes<br>The dawn, while trembling shepherds watch and pray<br>As heaven opens on their wondering gaze,<br>With gleam of cherubim and rush of wings,<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
