Easter
With a mercy that outrides...
Our passion-plunged giant risen,
The Christ of the Father compassionate, fetched in the
storm of his strides.
Now burn...
Miracle-in-Mary-of flame,...
Kind, but royally reclaiming his own;...
Our King back,...
Let him easter in us, be a dayspring to the dimness
of us, be a crimson-cresseted east,...
...rose, prince, hero of us, high-priest,
Our hearts' charity's hearth's fire, our thoughts'
chivalry's throng's Lord.
THE WRECK OF THE DEUTSCHLAND
To the happy memory of the five Franciscan nuns exiles by the Falck Laws drowned between midnight and morning of Dec. 7th, 1875. Gerard Manley Hopkins
