IN LOST JERUSALEM

BEHOLD the Pharisees, proud, rich, and damned,

Boasting themselves in lost Jerusalem,

Gathered a weeping woman to condemn,

Then watching curiously, without a sound

The God of Mercy, writing on the ground.

How looked his sunburned face beneath the sun

Flushed with his Father’s mighty angel-wine?

God make us all divine.
