AFTER MASS

Lovingly I turn me down
From this church, St. Philip's crown,
To the leafy street where dwell
The good folk of Arundel.
Lovingly I look between
Roof and roof, to meadows green,
To the cattle by the wall,
To the place where sea-birds call,
Where the sky more closely dips,
And perchance, there may be ships:
God have pity on us all!
