Beautiful. Truly He was fully Man and fully God. Incomprehensible to us, yet he sought us and bought us and calls us His friend and beloved. No greater gift.
Read this to my Knights of Columbus Council during the Good of the Order segment . Even practiced it beforehand to be sure to get it right . This is the Christ of the working man and of the soldier , "Fillers of trench and grave" .
He is among the very few who understands why Jesus threw the money changers out of the temple when he came to Jerusalem and why that was the last straw for the Jews.
Thanks for this lovely post, Frank. That poem was in our poetry book at school many years ago, and it never gets old.

Ezra Pound is one of my heroes.
