THE TRANSFIGURATION - ZaunköniG - 27.12.2010
THE TRANSFIGURATION.
The old 'Paulas' Theory.
A fiction or a fact ? an interview
Of Christ with His own prophets ? or a blink
Of moonlight caught by dreaming eyes, that wink
And wonder, and report what is not true ?
When will the impugners of the Gospel claims
The deep consistent likeness recognise
Between His woes and glories ? Living ties
That bind in one His honours and His shames ?
For all coheres ; His pangs and triumphs touch
Each other, like the wings of Cherubim :
Strange was His Birth—His death and rising, such
As to bear out that strangeness—and as much
May well be said of dark Gethsemane,
That sternest link in the great unity.
