Virginalia ; or, songs of my summer nights | ||
THE CRUCIFIXION.
From the Temple torn asunder
Of his God-Humanity,
Lofty piles of echoing thunder
Rolled in groans of agony!
Of his God-Humanity,
Lofty piles of echoing thunder
Rolled in groans of agony!
From his heart, the blood down-spilling,
Incense-smoke of pain was sent,
Blotting out the Sun, while filling
Heaven and Earth with wonderment!
Incense-smoke of pain was sent,
Blotting out the Sun, while filling
Heaven and Earth with wonderment!
