The title piece in this new volume is a dramatic poem of sixty pages,
the action of which takes place in the time of Christ. The characters
introduced include Pontius Pilate, Joseph of Ramah and Herod. The
play, for it is really such, is written in rhyme and is one of Mr.
Masefield's most interesting and important contributions to literature.
In addition to this there are in the book many sonnets and shorter
poems embodying the very finest work Mr. Masefield has yet done.
